The verdict
A stylish, theatrical choice-driven RPG prologue with great atmosphere and music, but buggy and unpolished. Skip it if you dislike text-heavy games or RNG checks.
Great for
Fans of Sir Brante, Pathologic and Disco Elysium who like text-heavy, choice-driven stories
Main risk
Buggy and unpolished, with choice locks and RNG checks that can feel unfair
