This Hunger Games-esque CoG was interesting, but for every enjoyable element, there were flaws as well. I enjoyed jumping from different POVs and the pacing of the action was good, but few of the choices really felt like they changed the story in significant ways. The author's writing style was entertaining, but also full of typos and confusing passages. Some things were over explained, while others were overly vague. Overall I enjoyed it, though I doubt it will stand up to additional reads.

Played the iOS version and willing to try again after iPhone dies. From what I've experienced during my unfortunate halfway-there-before-my-phone-bricked playthrough, this game has far exceeded what I had expected initially. The characters are not bland, in fact all pretty likeable, except Lucia (as a fighting specialist, she did little, acted like wood, and her emotions and her mystery should be fleshed out more). But all in all, this game skillfully combines a brutal "Hunger Game"/"Battle Royale" type of competition with a sci-fi twist. It deserves a much higher score.

It's enjoyable, and unlike other interactive fictions, the writing style is really easy to the eyes and it makes you understand what is going on despite you controlling 5 characters. I haven't finished it yet, but I'm sure I'll enjoy this through the end.
