This was as fun to play as it was easy to learn! I really like the simplicity of this game; you need very little time investment, table space, and components (a book, 6 dice, and pencil/paper)--the polar opposite of many of my favorite games, but I found it endearing. The rules-as-you-go system worked perfectly. I was worried it might be too dark for me, but the text is concise enough that the "level of darkness" is largely dictated by your own imagination. My first game ended in slow death, and I immediately wanted to go back in for more. Really happy I got the chance to play this, and looking forward to playing again!
A fun adventure--I appreciate the skill system and item/tag mechanics, and the story is enjoyably weird. I'd love a longer game in this style.
Loving this!
Looking forward to playing this when the mood gets me.

This is a completely new design vs the old card game. I've enjoyed playing it many times, even though I know every word of the plot (as the designer).
Fantastic book. Maybe my favourite gamebook to date (yes, that includes FF and Fabled Lands etc). Love the innovative ideas like the dex and wit tests and the tags. The writing is also engaging for me whilst being accessible enough for my son to enjoy. Bravo Mr Scaffidi. I'll be keeping a lookout for more of his work.
