Review
The game is short and I played it a dozen or so times to try to experience the multiple options. There are three perspectives on what/who the Knight might be and what it all means, and on my first play through I was genuinely intrigued to see what happens. But the ending(s) let the game down.
(Spoiler - click to show) There are three endings, one corresponding to each of the three perspectives of the knight - He slumbers, he never was, he is metaphorical but the treasure may be real. At the end, you pick one of them to be true and that is it. You pick, you are right, the game ends. In all cases I was left thinking "Is that it?"
vermis does manage to evoke atmosphere in this very short game, and I accept that the 500 word limit on the Neo-Twiny word jam is an extremely tight limitation. So I respect the effort but that ultimately was not enough for me to consider the game successful.
