Redemption

Author:Kathleen M. Fischer
Released:2003
Review:

An interactive conversation, in which part of the point is to explore the background story and discover your relationship to the main protagonist. The implementation is interesting, but it is extremely easy to get sub-optimal endings and to be unable to discover the full backstory. Some players found it quite immersive and natural, while others struggled with the interface a bit.

Rating: ****
