“as much as I like this game I can't recomend it. saying this game is hostile to new players is an understatement.”
“Great game when you get into it, but it is difficult until you learn the game. Also, Vfa = vote for alignment. Vfr = vote for role and vft = vote for time. just incase your new.”
“This game is fun, don't get me wrong, but this is one of the least beginner friendly games I have ever played.”

“I finally understand the game at the time I write this review. It's very fun once you get going. Honestly takes a little bit more brainpower than I'd like but for a text based game it's def worth the price. I think if…”

“This game is very accurate to the salem witch trials in 1692 because the people who play this game use about the same amount of logic to execute you as those who executed people for witchcraft in 1692”

“[quote][b]Note: Dying PvP game[/b] This is a PvP focused game, but only a handful of players remain. The player base is too small to provide the variety the game was designed around, and at this rate it will be…”

They…”
