Very good game, I enjoyed playing it.
Really cool game! Loved the narrative experience and different approach to the theme
Great narrative game! I liked the way it flipped randomly to different tones and stories.
Good narrative game, I liked the different story variations, but overall the ending felt a bit anticlimatic. Also loved the art / atmosphere!
The writing really shines through on this one, as others have said I wish the text was a little faster but it was super entertaining nonetheless.
This is alluring, got into a flow state while rolling. Very coherent and stylish experience, this is something, thanks! Would love for the text to appear a bit faster, and the web window was a bit too wide.
This game is super fun and really well-presented. I loved the random narrative beats a lot and i actually played it twice to see what else there was to discover. It's a really creative game! My only problem (as some people on here already said) was how slow the text moved but that wasn't that much of a problem tbh. Great game!
This game is fun, love the art style and the random stories it can tell from mass murder to DnD was engaging. Only change I would make is to have the text full display on a second click rather that having to always wait for it
Interesting and funny narrative game with a cool artstyle!
Very funny and interesting little narrative experience! Reminds me of some great point-n-click games I used to play on the internet when I was younger. Art and presentation is top notch and I was laughing quite a bit. Everyone should play this 10/10
What a great game ! actually laughed couple of times, amazing presentation, only wish we could skip dialogue when clicking and I would have definitely play to see every interactions :D Well done !
Fantastic atmosphere and comedy
Love the atmosphere and so impressed by the writing - and sheer amount of it! Great vibes, reminds me of SCP work from around 10-15 years ago. If the text was a little faster this would be utterly perfect!
The sound and the music are very cool. Liked the story! However, I think that the dragon story route is bugged (clicking 'roll' won't make the story advance and after clicking a few times, it just goes back to the main menu).
What a game. Really my only complaints are the text speed (no way to speed or skip it) and using "examine" always said the same 2 things, so not sure if there ever was something different there?
Loved the atmosphere and goofiness :D
Honestly one of the best games I have played so far, despite having some of the simplest gameplay.
The writing was on point. Funny at times but also not too silly. It made me laugh a good few times. I was also never short of being suprised by what the dice would roll next.
Really great story and art.
Simply amazing!
Simple but so great! I loved the more narrative focused approach to the theme, and the absurdity of the situation with the different routes to take really sold me on this game.
I loved it. Totally absurd.
That was very fun and very silly. Really enjoyed the story and jokes. I'm sure i missed a couple dialog options but I overall had a great time
