LONE WOLF SAGA WALKTHROUGH PDF
Trapped in Time is a fun and novel CYOA game which operates not on a computer but on paper, either real paper if you print out the PDF file which comprises the game or on the virtual pages of the PDF itself. (This review originally appeared as a blog post of mine during IFComp 2013.) Related reviews: science fiction, IFComp 2013 e-o (I can't program to save my life) Thank you Simon for the awesome game I hope that everyone will play it. It also gives me hope, because if I write in this format, I may finally be able to write interactive fiction. It's a little unique, well written, and I highly recommend that you play it. I think that the author should remove it and give the main character a name, as it disrupts the natural flow of reading.Īll in all, I loved this game. The only issue that I have concerns the _ (your name here) that appears three times throughout the story. If his style was a little different, the game would have felt more like a CYOA book and less like an IF game. On a side note, I rather enjoyed the author's writing style. I completed Trapped in Time in one glorious, one and a half hour sitting. I was able to return to the main path quickly and easily for, when I seemed to stray a bit, the game reminded me which page number I needed to return to in order to go back. I also liked how, unlike a Choose Your Own Adventure book, I didn't need to write down page numbers (or doggy ear pages :P) to help me remember that there's another branch of the story that I left unexplored. Not to worry, there's a walkthrough on the last two pages in case you need to re-check your math skills. This presents a small problem, because if you add incorrectly (as I once did), you end up reading ahead a little bit. As you gain knowledge and items, you acquire the ability to add certain numbers to use a new action. It's a lot like a Choose Your Own Adventure book, only not everything is immediately revealed to you. ( Spoiler - click to show) For example, when I discovered that I was sub-consciencally time traveling or how, when you re-start the game, you realize that you haven't escaped your fate. The thing that I liked most about the format was how it was implemented. ( Spoiler - click to show) What I'm trying to say is that the way that the game is formatted contributes to the game as much as the characters and items combined. Once I got into the swing of things, I realized how well this format works for this game (specifically), especially compared to some other formats. When I began to play Trapped in Time, my first thought was, "What is this? This isn't interactive fiction!" The game, in itself, looks more like a stylized Choose Your Own Adventure book than a text adventure game.
