What players say

Players are split on this short choice-based game. Some enjoy the moral questions and shaping a kingdom, while others find it tedious, describing it as a long questionnaire. Multiple reviews mention secret words and ending assessments. There is no save feature and the game can freeze, forcing restarts.
