Telling the story through quotes is so unique, but it definitely added to the environment. I felt like I was reading about a real event. At first, I thought the story was very linear, but I have played it about three times now and made subtle (or big, depending on certain options) changes. Overall, a fascinating, well-told story!

This honestly had me believing every word trying to figure out which one really happened, as I could visualize them both. I found it a little hard to read, but that is well understandable given the time period.

I say this was a very fine and fantastic read. It almost made me feel like I was reading some kind of lore from the old days. I really enjoyed it fully!

Telling much of the story through quotes is an original and interesting set up. The olde English was well done too!

This seems like it has been copied from Wikipedia.
