No discernable story at the beginning at least, most NPCs say highly generic things and half of the sign posts do not even say anything or are incompletely written.
LANGUAGE
1/10
Language is poorly written; incomplete sentences, signposts cutting off at random or having one word on them as though it was started on but then stopped
GAMEPLAY
1/10
Game play would likely be better if there was any sort of guide. There is none. Searching the site, there is no official guide, it says on the site to look for ‘player written guides’ but those are as well impossible to find on google. You are required to register for their forum to even read it, which is where the guides are at.
Without a guide, any action beyond walking is impossible. One can click on NPCs to interact with them, but pressing every key on the keyboard right and left clicking yielded no response when trying to do anything to anything else. I had spent two hours simply trying to figure out how to do anything, eventually discovering, if I double clicked on an enemy I could face it and do NOTHING until it killed me.
SUMMARY
This game is not designed for new players who may stumble across it. If you do not have somebody already playing who can walk you through it, it is not worth the extraordinary amount of difficulty in figuring out that could be resolved as simply as having a commands list available on the home site.
Overall score: 1/10
