Fantastic, story can be changed from even the smallest of details, and plays with ideas such as honor, loyalty, mutinies, and uses stats like RPGs, and they do have a severe effect on the gameplay. I'd recommend this to anyone who loves Choose Your Own Adventure, swashbuckling adventures, ans has patience to wait 20 minutes after the story ends, because it's definitely worth it. ps: On the ads, if your offline, no ads pop up.

A damn good role-playing game with a nice step-up in diction and overall narrative quality from prior Choice games I've played, especially Life of a Mercenary. The spiring ups and downs (wavelike, you could say!) is an innately satisfying and gratifying endeavor, and picking the option of female is quite the fun thing on its own purely in terms of the simple differences in speech and reversed social status. Overall, really damn fun game, even with ads!

Meh, it's a thing. Not the best or worst text adventure I've ever played. A bit short, but considering you don't have to pay for the whole thing I won't hold that against anybody. The story is fun - if a bit basic - and your skills actually determine what choices you should make. Overall a very well implemented mechanic. Definitely for you if you don't want to commit to some massive 200,000 word novel.

Unfortunately the game seems to have a very big penalty system. Every wrong choice seems to penalize you harshly, but the reward system doesn't seem to reward you as much

Thats slack at the end of the game which makes you wait or pay to play are you kidding me thats just a dirty way to get cash... Its an ok game but the ads and paing methods make this game one star even in role playig games so far
