While the nuts-and-bolts part of this piece of interactive fiction can be frustrating in it's ambiguity; the world and storyline are fantastic and I would love to explore it further. The dogfighting scenes are great!
Very well written but also very hard
I highly recommend this game. The story is very interesting and the author writing skill is high. While choice changes the story properly, and the endings are plenty.
Very cool
THIS IS BULL, THEY FORCE ME INTO THE REVELUTIONARY....THIS GAME IS TRASH.....ALSO WHATS THE POINT OF GIVING ME AN OPTION TO DO SOMETHING AND NOT LET ME DO IT, I FEEL LIKE MOST CHOICES I MAKE DON'T MATTER AT ALL....... but a tiny black disc at the base of your skull. You could hide it with a scarf or a raised collar WOULDN'T MY HAIR COVER IT ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAVE A FEMALE CHARACTER.........but then the old woman notices the trode at the base of your skull. MY FEMALE CHARACTER HAS HAIR RIGHT🤬😡
Thank you for the asexual rep!!!
Amazing. Characters are really loveable, even the villains. Writing style is immersive and the fighting scenes are stunningly intense. Romance is excellent too, with great dynamics that build on the story. Overall a great game.
There seems to be one problem, why can't I dance with Lectini at the soiree?
I actually purchased this book.The author built a unique world with a Steampunk feel: with Combines [the ruling class], the Resistance and Deeptech [think underground ancient technology].The Empyrean is a flying machine called an Aero built using the Deeptech.This story has dog fights, rival airmen and competing factions.The ending is abrupt and could have had more detail about what happens afterwards. The stats work well but they are not intuitive. Use the show stats to assist decision making.
I don't want to be a rebel. I want to be part of the regime and be a cruel leader
