A short game mimicking 19th century Russian style, February 3, 2016

In this game, you play a Russian upper or middle class individual who is scheduled for a duel in the snow.

The game is in two or three parts; your house, the duel, and interludes (including the opening).

The interludes were entertaining and imaginative, but it was often hard to know what to do.

The house segment was the most fun to me, as you recall your history, explore, etc.

The duel segment was also a bit confusing, but the ending(s) were well-written, especially the losing ending.

Overall, not bad. I enjoy 19th century Russian literature, so this was a fun treat.
