I laughed. I cried. A philosopher died. This was a true hoot. A real laugh fest. I mean, you kind of have to have a bit of a dark streak in you to appreciate a lot of the humor, which I most certainly possess. This IF is almost entirely dialogue: witty, informative, descriptive, contemplative, and most especially so-funny-my-sides-hurt dialogue. And yet there is still a serious side to this, obviously given the subject matter. This story entertains, educates, and keeps you guessing. It keeps you wanting more. It is not extremely long, probably around 1 hour to see most of it with a replay. Keep in mind this game deals with adult themes, but is not graphic in its descriptions. You know the ending, but it's the ride, ahem, the journey, that makes this one great.
