Ratings and reviews

It's simple but great.

It's bit hard to understand on the first time through, especially for those who aren't into computers. But the story is compelling because it is more like the author is trying to use the format of the story to explore different ideologies and their most extreme conclusions, like Dostoevsky. In that regard, I like it. I love stories like this. Regarding the gameplay and graphics, it was easy for me to read and easy to punch in my options. I would highly recommend this game.

Great. Felt like a real programmer
