This (game) story has more to offer than first appears and I don't understand some of the comments made about the game characters.

This is a visual novel after all, a story that the author is trying to tell while giving the player some options about how they want to see it go...

I thought the characters were mostly relatable in the context and the branching story paths were interesting to explore (v5.5). The image renders are very nice and the achievement wall is a nice touch and adds replay value for exploration.

I will confess my first run through I made honest choices (as allowed) and got very little sexiness (poor me) but that just sounds like life! haha.

Exploring other options opens up the story lines a lot more.

Well done to dev Naughty Captain and here's hoping you bring your work to a satisfying conclusion.

So PC Gamer magazine recently featured your game in their "Free Game Reviews" section (August 2023 #372). Who doesn't love a free game?

I spent a few hours over the last 2 days making my way to the very end while searching out every treasure and secret passage (I hope).

Great game. I loved the retro style, the trading and hired mercenaries, the quest list, and especially the exploring. The mild hints were perfect. Hand holding is far too common in games these days! The Hall of Fame is a nice touch. I really liked the ending.

I had a little trouble with a certain quest but finally tracked down the reference and made the delivery.

While it is 'game jam short' in length, I think it checks all the boxes for me. A longer version could include more towns, more tricky quests and more map puzzles but that wouldn't necessarily make it any better.

Also, while the game is browser based, after starting the game I saved a copy of the browser page (complete). I opened the downloaded copy in a browser that doesn't clear my cookies/cache on exit (I use Chrome for this purpose) and it works fine offline and maintains my save file. The 'Hall of Fame' won't display when offline of course.

Thank you for the entertainment!
