This game is absolutely beautiful. It pleases both the video game boi and the theatre slut inside me. It expands the characters not-known-as-Hamlet to the nth degree which I really feel the play needed (at least in contemporary times). It creates brilliant branching narratives that are incredibly engaging to follow.

I was a little bit concerned about the introduction of new characters but all of my worries were thrown out the window when I saw the places they had in this game.

There are some minor things that break immersion like people saying that "Character x" is alive despite their death already happening. But that's a pretty rare thing.

I love the inter-mingling and the connections between the characters. And it's super freaking mellodramatic. Perfectly Shakespearean. "Oh no, my love hates me, time to kill everyone" kind of stuff.

Othello is my husband, and I really hope they make a sequel about Othello and Desdemona. Maybe put you in the role of Emily and figuring everything out.
