Machinations: Fog of War

It is a well written story with interesting political intrigues. Unfortunately the choice system is a turn down for me, with 3 options that align to a type of resources that gradually improve either type of resource with consistency. I tried to be consistent but I fail most of the time then forced to go with option I am not comfortable with. It is ruining my overall gameplay experience. Maybe it is just me, others might feel differently. I also felt that the plot went all over the place, seems it had too many things going on. 4/10 Nameless shapeshifting android secret agent is a positive. Other than that, my brain is very foggy.

Story is moderately interesting, but the reason I don't recommend it is because they tried to make the mechanics too complex and it failed horribly. Your goals are frequently poorly explained, people change gender mid-conversation, you can sometimes take actions based on information you haven't actually learned (or at the very least wasn't properly explained to the player), your character will sometimes talk about things that haven't happened, and certain confrontations can be repeated which is just bizarre.

interesting to say the least

https://youtu.be/WiK6Xt735-I A Choose Your Own Adventure Game that tracks your choices and calculates points and stats based on them. The story is well written, but the game would be well-served with some music/sound effects/art to go with the writing. As it is, it does not take advantage of being a "Game". I would still reccomend it, though the price tag may be a little steep for a CYOA book. Check it out.

I forgot I had this game in my library after playing it for twenty minutes. I've had it for a while to be honest. All the words are bundled up, while I consider myself to be a light reader. Only managing to complete Across the Nightingale Floor in a couple hours. This kept me confused throughout the entire ten minutes I played. Then I was given a variety of choices. I mean a [b] variety [/b] of choices. It kept changing with a minimum of minimalistic descriptions in the form of three choices. To complex sentences in multiple choices. If you are going to make these choices different, at least stay dedicated to one style. Rather than, "Damn, that hurt!" "Damn you to hell, this gives me great physical pain." Of course it is dramatised and these don't actually come up in the game. It does get pretty difficult to stay attentive.

я то бумал ♥♥♥♥♥ это игра а это какаято ♥♥♥♥♥ не понятная ♥♥♥♥ вы ♥♥♥♥♥ вообще ???? написали бы что это не игра ♥♥♥!

Leider keine Empfehlung, das Spiel an sich ist ok aber die Geschichte motiviert (mich) nicht zum weiterlesen. Weiterer Punkt habe durch meine Entscheidungen wohl ein Ende gefunden was nicht vorhanden ist was letzt endlich zum crash führte!

I kept on trying and trying to read through this. I just couldn't focus on it. I didn't feel any real connection to the story and I found it rather difficult to follow. It was boring at best. I'd give it a 3/10.

One of the few really unplayable Hosted Games I've come across. There is plenty of choice as to your robot assassin's origins, but no depth to the backgrounds, no depth to the story or characters, no development to the very end. Intricacy is not interest, which the text almost wholly lacks, and when a robot specialised and upgraded in a certain skill cannot pass any key tests in that skill it's hardly worth the trouble of unravelling such obscure, frustrating gameplay for such a flat story.

I recomend this to anyone who enjoys reading. There are many opions and it feels like every chose matters. I do wish it was longer though so that the choices could make bigger effects during the game.
