The Race by Andy Why

It felt like a dream. Just three days ago you were going about your normal business when your life figuratively and literally went around a corner into an old lady carrying hot coffee. Apologetically, she offered to pay for your wet clothes to be cleaned but the dry cleaners was closed due to the owner, Mr. Popadopalous going on vacation. Instead, you let the gray haired woman buy you a can of cola. And that can... that wonderful, winning can had delivered you here to Lima, Peru.

Now you are about to go on the journey of a lifetime as you take part in the event known the world over as... THE RACE

I didnt win the race. But the way the writer wrote the story is effective --I made friends with my companion. And at the end, when I lost, I wasn't sad for myself, but for her. Gee, I wished I've won us the race.

0/5 Leonie wouldn't go for a drink with me.. probably has a boyfriend..
Overall, I really liked this game! There's a lot of options even though some seem to be irrelevant and unconsequential but that's not a bad thing actually. I like being able to embarass myself while jumping balconies. Keep it up.

Incredibly fun. You really feel like you have gone through a journey when you reach the end. I had one heck of a big dumb goofy smile on my face. Très bien!

Really interesting game!
If you've wanted to be part of a big race like this, but will never truly try - this is a great simulation. ^___^
I've played it a few times to find several of the achievements... it's fun.

I have played this game at least ten times all the way through. My god, it was a journey.
When playing without the guide I found either death, loss, or just one of the 4 main endings. When I looked up how to find the others, let's just say I wasn't disappointed and all those hours I spent (at least 5, lol) was fully worth it. The Choice of Games layout was very nice as well.
Just play it!

Great game, well written. Once you play it once, do it again and see if you remember the fastest way to do things :P

Or, be the slowest. Whichever. This game could last you a while.
