Great Presentation, Poor Story

Inkle’s presentation and gameplay mechanics are absolutely stellar. Unfortunately the material they chose to present is not. Steve Jackson simply cannot come up with an interesting or entertaining story to save his soul, and I’ve looked at numerous of his books. I wish that Inkle had chosen the Grail*Quest series instead, by J.H. Brennan. _His_ writing has a lot of character and humor, which Jackson’s does not. I’m glad I got this first installment just to see first-hand the wonderful gameplay and presentation that Inkle does, but I doubt very much that I’ll be continuing in this series. The story puts me to sleep.
