How it feels
A quiet, contemplative journey through medieval England where your written choices shape a politically charged story.

What players say
Players praise the writing and medieval setting but feel the game is too short and lacks depth. Romance develops abruptly, and the political focus leaves some wanting more from the Canterbury Tales premise itself.
