How it feels

The game feels like reading a dense, branching novel where your moral and tactical decisions shape the fate of a military campaign.

What players say

Players praise the writing and world-building in this Napoleonic-era interactive novel, but warn it is short and linear as the first entry in a trilogy. Many note unforgiving stat management and the lack of a female protagonist option. Opinions split on length: some see it as a tight start, others as barely a third of a book.
