  • Thanks a lot for participating in the 7DRL! Glad you were able to submit your entry. This was an incredibly creative idea, but it did take me more then a few tries to get "into" it. It was definitely an interesting take on creating a story / journey for the player to get through. A few of the choice scenarios reminded me of the questions faced by the player in the early Ultima games during character creation. Thanks a lot for entering the challenge, and hopefully you had a great time putting this entry together!
  • This is a pretty cool game - it can get the right type of person addicted to it for a while. I literally wrote out a page of events, outcomes, and requirements for each of them to try achieving high scores. The lack of events happening after acquiring a profession was a bit sad. I can imagine that even generating this many events and balancing them to be attainable for different builds is a lot of work, but it felt like my character has just started the adult life and all the fun has already passed. (Perhaps it was meant to be philosophical?) Regardless, it left me with a feeling of incompleteness, hence 3 for completeness. There also seems to be a bug with constitution being applied a turn too late? Not sure. I think aesthetically the game achieves exactly what it's supposed to, and fun-wise there are enough stories and balance to play for an hour+.
