Some Ideas, Weak Story, February 10, 2010by Brian Conn (Eureka, California) Most of my reactions have already been expressed by previous reviewers, but I wanted to add this: Although the game may or may not work as a psychology test or an exploration of morality, it fails as a story. The exposition is good, and some of the early description drew me in, but as I went on my feeling of being an actor in a fictional world started to fade. By the end I had no sense of urgency; I was making choices as I'd make choices on a psychology test, without any notion that they'd affect characters I cared about. Was this review helpful to you?

An interesting experiment, May 6, 2008by Pavel Soukenik (Kirkland, WA) De Baron deals not so much with actions as with their justifications and rationalization. This is achieved almost exclusively by conversations which happen in menu-based trees. The action of the story is moving steadily along a linear path with some choices to make along the way. What is both good and bad is the fact that the subsequent in-game discussions cover all the options available, which is very interesting but it makes your particular choices seem less important.
