The Breakfast Review
The premise of the New Shoe being the lynchpin behind the Evil Plot defuses a bit of the tension, in favour of humour and whimsy. I don't know that it offers anything new or surprising, but it's a fairly entertaining story nonetheless. Actually, come to think of it, perhaps the tension feels surprisingly low, given the nature of the story. I'm not sure why this is.

This is a pretty long twine game with some dark humor, all about a conspiracy and a new shoe.
This game is well-coded, and includes difficult twine constructs and handles it well. The text seems mostly error-free.
The game handles puzzles much better than most Twine games. The annoyance of lawnmowering links was offset by the creativity of the puzzle design.
The writing wasn't especially polished, and the story was hard to follow in places. It has a single and unnecessary strong profanity near the start.
