Review
This game is a crime game where you assemble a team to pull off a heist. Absolutely everything is in limerick form, even the choices, which are all first lines of limericks.
I give stars in 5 criteria: polish, interactivity, emotion, descriptiveness, and if I would play again.
This game is both very polished and very descriptive. The limericks are clever, and the game uses color very effectively.
It's funny, I'll admit, but the sheer number of limericks was wearying by the end. I often feel this way with poetry (I've never finished Paradise Lost), so I didn't feel very emotionally invested.
The interactivity was a sort of gauntlet style where you could lose at any point in the story making the wrong choice. It makes for less writing (which makes sense with so many constraints!), but I wasn't really into the overall structure. There are some paths that do branch and recombine, though.
And overall, I would play again, and I would recommend it to people looking for something quirky.
