"It`s often said that Professor Barker`s world of Tékumel is too complex and esoteric to be understood and enjoyed by most people, but this excellent game is a fine argument against that lazy dismissal. Lots of detail and colour without being needlessly picayune, yet it also avoids the trap of over-explaining everything and ruining the tale. Contrary to some of the reviews I found plenty of play here with a very satisfying ending, far from abrupt and very much in keeping with the overall tone. Recommended."

"This is my favorite COG by far. It made me invest in my character, the relationship she had with all around her, and her ultimate destiny. Writing was good. Lengthy. Like a true novel where you`re the central chct. Negs: some passages are really long on one page, endings leave you wanting more (it`s not over! More), no sequel as far as I know. But it was so rich and action packed and romantic and exactly what an interactive novel should be. Not even the tropey parts felt tropey. Good job"

"I enjoyed the story, but I found the ending to be abrupt and sudden. As if I had been sprinting, then ran around a corner and smacked face first into a brick wall. Other than that, great job."

"...but the end result somehow falls flat for me. I`m not giving less than 4 stars simply because it IS a good, fun game offering enough choice and variety. Just not as much as I`d like I. It feels limited and constrained in subtle ways. You get sandwiched into a method of problem solving off the bat and deviating from it seems doomed to meet with failure. And if you split your focus you`ll fail even more often. Or so it feels. Kinda makes the game boring fast."

"A little bit disappointed. The premise is good, but executed quite poorly. There were a few parts which didn`t make sense, and it came to something of an abrupt end. I didn`t get emotionally invested in this game, like I have in the others I`ve played."

"Good. Could have been better. The setting was neat but the story wasn`t. Although you could characterize your main character pretty interestingly."

"This is another game I believe is best the first time through. It got stale after the second playthrough, but was a great story with some variation in endings."

"I don`t care what anybody says the ending was terrible it did no justice for the rest of the full and in-depth story. The whole time while I read I felt so involved, but I didn`t even realise I finished the story until I was on the Subscrice for future stories page. It was such a good story ruined by a kick in the pants, no substance, piece of crap ending. It did have a saving grace, the ride to the ending is fun, but be prepared for disappointment when you finish."

"Alright so when I scroll through the reviews there is a divide between wether the ending is rushed or not. So I will tell you my opinion on the matter. It is rushed. For the simple reason that the game failed to meet its promise. So I rejected to marry my arranged spouse in order to save her from politics, then the elders of my clan promise me another arranged spouse if I came back from a war with glory, and I did exactly that, but what did the game gave me? Just thanks from my comrades and nothing, the game just ended, bam, with me being left without no spouse whatsoever. Ironically the game said in the beginning that you can have more than one spouse but ehh, lies. For a 124k words, not worth it."

"I loved it. Wished there were more choice games like this one. My only problem is that it ends so quick. You could finish the game in 30 minutes. If you`re a fast reader. But besides that I recommend playing this game."
