Over the Top

Over the Top is a micro interactive poem, meant as a tribute to the fallen during the Great War (WWI). In a trench somewhere in northern France, a soldier readies himself for a battle, recalling words from his friend Charlie to settle himself. While you do not affect the overall story (like a single soldier would not drastically affect the events of a war like this), you may affect the current state of your surrounding and comrades (would they survive just a bit longer? or are their fate ultimately death?), as well as the formatting of one of the poem’s line. Though I am not much for poetry, it was a neat piece to interact with.
