How's the story?

[Skree]

Can someone say something about it? Engaging? and dialogues? multiple choice? skill based?

I would very much like to have some info on this game, it seems quite interesting.

Thanks in advance!

There are also some reviews out where they talk about the story:

That should get you started. Hopefully some people who played will chime in with their opinions.

Hmm... Dialogues seem pre-written, no choice nor skill checks (i watched a gameplay video)... and you have to decide beetween pregenerated characters?

You threw me there for a second when I tried to contemplate the possibilities of non-pre-written dialogues. But then I got it. Rest assured there are dialog choices and skill checks. Until you leave your home there are not really any choices to make. But after that, definitely.

Also, you are correct that we have provided four pre-generated characters for you to choose from that reflect different playstyles. I think you would find them quite interesting and fun to play.

It seems indeed interesting. I am really tempted (and will probably fail to resist :P).

I player Divinity: Original Sin 2, recently, Tyranny, Pillars of Eternity, and the three Shadowrun RPGs.

So your game seems absolutely in the spectrum i like.

It just takes me by surprise, i didn't know this game even existed, and this doesn't happen really often. Not that it's a bad thing, i am always happy to find good games ^^

You just "took me by surprise".

You'll probably see a mouse icon next to my nick name in a short while.

Great! We are taking lots of people by surprise. It's hard to be seen. So if you would like to spread news of our game to your like minded friends they can be taken by surprise too. ;)
