A Broken Man

Author:Geoff Fortytwo
Released:2006
Review:

A vengeance story with a twist (in this case, the last wod almost can be taken literally). Balances between three and four stars. The factora that finally turned the scale were several non-crucial bugs, the possibility to lock oneself out of victory without sufficient warning, and the inclusion of adult content without any indication either in the game itself or in the accompanying materials. Plus, it wasn't easy for me to identify myself with the protagonist.

Rating: ***
