So bear with my rough assessment.Pendragon Rising an old style text-based adventure where nearly, if not every decision you make matters in some way to the story. Unfortunately I missed the age of Text based games, so playing this as my first pure experience was quite fun.As expected, the roughly 3 hours (per read-through) of gameplay consists solely of making decisions, leading to what kind of King Arthur\/Queen Arta you will be. This consists of these main traits. Leadership, Diplomacy, Warrior, Compassion v. Ruthlessness, Bravado v. Cunning, and Old Religion v. Roman Christianity. But regardless of what kind of ruler you are, you are almost positive to get a rich story.Pros:+Great and immersive story.+Fun experimentation with choices. Each one truly feels unique.+Romances (Or flings) feel pleasantly tasteful.+Writing is very strong, I don't recall seeing any spelling errors.Cons:-Personally wish the read length was longer.-There was a choice or two I found were hard to understand what was meant in context.Taking everything I've said I strongly recommend this game, with a solid 9\/10. If you've got a few hours to spare, or even more for several read-throughs, it's definitely worth the humble price of $4. I'm looking forward to more stories from this developer!. Do not buy this expecting a game in the common sense of the word. It is interactive fiction. The author obviously knows quite a bit about Arthurian legend and pre-Medieval Europe, and they have used this knowledge to weave a well-written narrative with compelling characters. If you enjoy reading and fantasy fiction, I highly recommend this. People looking for visceral and visual action should look elsewhere.. Ever wanted to take part in the Arthur saga? Now is your time to change one of britains most famous stories.While it differs in quite some things from the original (naturally), it catches the dramatic events of Arthurs way from bastard son to Ruler of the Kingdom in it\u00b4s war against the evil Saxon invaders.Offering a special treat, Pendragon Rising includes the option to change the whole main cast from male to female, which also presents a different take on the story itself.Will you strive to make peace via diplomacy wherever possible or be a revengeful ruler without mercy? An opportunistic coward or a true hero, who inspires your folk with brave speeches?The writing is also enjoyable enough to fit the theme, while friends of the classic adventure topic, where you rally your allies together with your close group of friends should feel right at home.Conclusio: This has to be one of my favourite CYoA books up to now, as the atmosphere is really enjoyable, the characters likeable\/hateable and it has enough content, to play it more than once, and even get a fully different setting.Rating: 8\/10. Another great product from COG. An alternate take on Arthur's legend (I think). A great story with political intrigue and battles. Had fun playing as it also worth my money and time.8\/10 Incest. Ah, the good old medieval times of shagging that will make Cersei proud. Although I was not aware of it. Blame my lover-stealing father for that.. A nice mix of RPG and strategy (all text obviously).. I have just finished my first playthrough and I plan on doing more to see what other endings I could find, though it did not took me very long, just over 3 hours, it was time very well spent and engaging enough to make me want to come back to it for another round which is rare for me. I will say that going into it I didn't expect much as my past experience with text based games was not great, however I am happy that Pendragon Rising was able to reverse that. It had some great reveals and for the most part delivered on the promise of the choices you make being something that matters. It is by no means perfect as sometimes I felt a lack of depth in the alliance building you can engage through diplomacy, but as I've only got 1 playthrough under my belt I bet that there is a lot I missed. Over all for the price it asks and the replay value I would suggest to pick this game up you won't regret it.. Captures the old "choose your own adventure" feeling. Very immersive story. I love the presentation of all of the characters particuarly Morgan and Emrys. Your choices not only change the story but also change your character enabling or disabling certain choices all depedent on earlier made decisions. A simple but fun game worth the 2-3 hours to read it the first time. Afterwards, the repeat playthroughs are fun to see different character choices and reactions to change your results.I highly recommend this one especially at <$5.00 prices.V\/R,RPC. Incredibly well written, very, very well-edited, and packed with choices that matter deeply. The game expects you to either know the setting, or to learn it very quickly. Making a misstep is always significant, and you'll have no one to blame but yourself.Took about 2.5 hours to get through a quick pace. I'm looking forward to playing through again as a re-read, to see what else is possible.8.5\/10
