A short one, December 9, 2013
by Simon Deimel (Germany)

It is a short story with interactive elements. Some strong expressions, but that was still acceptable... I did not feel offended at any point. It reminded me of a typical story by Charles Bukowski.

be a punch drunk bastard, June 17, 2013
by freidarobinson

Less a game than a mildly interactive story. Punchy and quick and is over before the fact that it's not really a game has set in. It's fun for what it is.
