Ratings and reviews

Good writing, story composition was immaculate to say the least, unfortunately the stat mechanics fell short and I found myself barely ever even opening the page. ⚠️Spoilers? Not getting the crown was kind of a big let down as well, what with all the build up of trying to be worthy of the sword and all. The betrayal I saw coming solely because I'm an insufferable overthinker, & I wish there was less extreme options to deal with him. Also, I cried for Leia. All in all wish there was more!!

I found it to be pretty interesting and well written story overall. Now i have to say the game is pretty linear and most your stats don't seem to really matter except leadership. With that being said i really did like it but it suffers without a part 2. Oh also the game does have a focus a bit on romance it feels kinda brief for except like for two of the options but i don't think it is actually is short just feels that way.

So I'm torn on this game, it starts off real interesting and the idea that you actions can decide if you could become king. About half way through it started feeling more like reading a novel then actually choosing your own adventure. I focused on on combat and haven't used the skill once and I'm at about 3/4 of the way through. Alot of the choices seem superficial and don't actually affect anything. It had alot of potential to be a great game but it falls short, I'd recommend skipping it.
