The God Device does what any good IF game should. It allows the players to follow their own logic within a few but decisive choices. Every step takes you into a new and fantastical environment without completely losing the player's hold to reality. Sure the player may be at lost to the identity of the protagonist and the terminology of the world but that's nothing farther from the next dialogue option. Overall the game continues to engage with plenty of replay value left over.

Not sure if I should be reviewing this yet, but I did want to say that I really enjoyed this game! It's a cool Choose-Your-Own-Adventure style sci fi romp -- I like that the choices actually have weight and that the game really does change depending on your decisions. I also like that it avoids the biggest annoyance that I usually have with CYOA, where you can make a totally logical choice and the story will punish you for it. I remember reading CYOA stories where you can choose to carefully climb down a cliff rather than leaping from the top like an idiot and yet the safer choice will arbitrarily result in death. In this story, every action flows logically from the choice you make and I really appreciate that.
Also a pretty nifty little sci fi story that's easy to get in to despite some unfamiliar names and terms.
