Arthur, by piratescarfy

Short Twine game with Shakespearean influence, April 30, 2015*
Related reviews: less than 15 minutes

This is a Twine game in which you play as the character of young Arthur from the Shakespearean play King John. The game is very short, but provides an interesting take on the character. It is helpful to read the play before or after the game for complete understanding, but not necessary.

Very short hyperlink game about a boy and his dog, April 19, 2015*
Related reviews: less than 15 minutes

Short game with a few branching options but only one ending.

Seems like a fun little game a parent and child put together as a family project. No puzzles, inventory, or exploration.

Much better than anything I did as a seven year old. If you are reading this, I laughed, I liked the pictures, I cared about the dog, and only I wish it had lasted longer...

Excellent microgame, April 15, 2015*
Related reviews: less than 15 minutes

I learned that this is an entry for a micro-writing contest, where all entries must be 300 words or less. Given that my only issue was the length, I am giving this five stars for the format that it is intended for.

**Original review**
This is not so much a game as it is a way of presenting a short, scary story. It is very-well crafted while it lasts, but there are only one or two real choices in the game, and they don't make a large difference.

I want to be clear that the game is exceptionally well developed and put together--but I expect that most people playing interactive fiction are looking for something much longer than this.
