The Spider and the City was my first journaling RPG ever and I loved it. I started with just a name, no idea at all of how my character and world should be. Through the prompts and the jobs it evolved into a dramatic tale of fratricide and loneliness. The setting is great, there is few information but it's enough to get your creativity rolling.
One minor thing: In act 3, the dice rolls got pretty easy to pass, maybe I just got lucky? (or maybe my general's heart wasn't really in it ;-) )
Thanks for this game!
