Your storyline, all decided before the curtain rises, January 3, 2023by Lance Cirone (Backwater, Vermont) Opening Night is so much more than it appears. It's a short game, taking me around 40 minutes, so please give it a try. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment
Comments on this reviewPrevious | << 1 >> | Next Andrew Schultz, January 5, 2023 - Reply This is one game that'd been on my radar off and on. So I appreciate the notes and also the spoiler tag. There are a lot of them that lead up to a performance, and I'm still impressed by the ways it can be done. Also, more generally, thanks for all your recent contributions to IFDB to keep it lively! I probably won't be explicitly saying "thanks, I meant to look at that" for every one you cover, and I bet there are other people who are thinking the same thing, too. Lance Cirone, January 6, 2023 - Reply Hey, thanks! I love your games and reviews, too! I've been playing IF for about a year now (I started with Nord and Bert in December 2021), and finished about 30 games by the time I joined IFDB. I started reviewing them in June 2022, so I only had reviews written for about half of them. Right now, I'm working on porting over my old reviews and polishing them (like Cragne Manor or Pytho's Mask), writing new ones for games I've played in the past (like Max Blaster), or even trying out new games and doing fresh reviews (like Suveh Nux and Not the Lord of the Rings). It's a bit of work, but it feels rewarding. I'm pretty careful about spoilers in my reviews! IFDB reviews are usually good at handling them, and after I finish a game, I like to go back and read the spoiler-y reviews. Andrew Schultz, January 11, 2023 - Reply Thanks for the nice words and we're glad to have you around! I noticed you had a review of one of my games up but I admit I try to take 24 hours to respond to a review, positive or negative, and it got lost in the shuffle. (Don't worry about looking for it. I'll go back eventually.) I'd been meaning to write more reviews for a while, but after I vanished for most of IFComp 2020, I decided I wanted to try to write as many reviews as possible for IFComp 2021. I managed to get through with them. So that felt good. And I kept on a roll, but there are still so many gaps I want to fill in, stuff from before 2000 I haven't played. |
