I'll give The Daring Mermaid Expedition a 7/10. Things I noticed (Might be slightly spoilery... but nothing major):Great premise for a story. (Trying to become a member of an explorer / adventurer / scholarly guild.) (Reminds me of Pathfinders in a way.) The pace seemed a bit rapid. You would quickly move to a new location or situation, and about the moment you would get comfortable... Instead of being able to experience the new location more and enjoy the flavor of the story, you seem to be abruptly rushed to the next scenario. Sometimes worst, the results from a choice would also feel a bit jarring and very VERY abrupt, then swept under the rug. (I'm looking at you two Sandoval and Madame, making kissy face for no real good reason at all. I guess I rolled a natural 20 on my diplomacy check, and now we'll never see these characters again after all that buildup... *rolls eyes*) The ch
Unless I'm mistaken, I believe this is only my second Choice of Games game. And while it's not quite as good as the first (Hollywood Visionary), it's still pretty charming. It's an agreeable little "period" tale about - you guessed it! - mermaids. It's not quite worthy of the likes of Terry Gilliam or early Tim Burton, but has a humorous eccentricity which kept me sufficiently hooked throughout (pun probably intended). Don't come in expecting anything too deep or dark or meaningful, and you may well find something to enjoy...especially if you have a thing for merpersons. The writing is quirky yet solid, the choices at least sufficient; though some may find it a tad lacking in the length department. Personally, I become more enamoured with short games with each passing month, and don't see the need for every gaming experience to be an epic undertaking. If you don't agree with me, you
Product refunded I am a big fan of Choice of Games, having enjoyed all of the games from them I've played thus far. Unfortunately, that streak of enjoyment has come to an end with "The Daring Mermaid Expedition". This is the first time I've ever played one of their games and just wished for it to be over. And, wouldn't you know it, my wish came true: it was over incredibly fast. Honestly, it feels more like a demo than a fully fleshed out game. Perhaps even a beta release rather than the finished product. The premise of the story had me hooked. The thought that I'd be going through a lengthy and in-depth trial to prove the existence of mermaids along with my own skill. Sadly, the game itself was a let down. It's boring and disjointed, the way choices change your stats seems iffy at best. They really don't make much sense, you are given very generic choices that lead to long scenes tha
This is a game with plot that lurches about all over the place, touting choice but offering little in the way of it. Pros: Interesting premise Cheap, but other (better) Choice of Games titles are cheaper Cons: Main character is very childish, which makes sense at the beginning when they're a child but really shouldn't have continued after the first pages. The narration really does ruin the story. Your character 'decides' to dedicate their life to joining the marinological society and finding mermaids, but gives little reason as to why and there's no explanation why you can't simply look for them yourself The patrons you can choose to impress to help you on your journey are the only available love interests and should be major NPCs, but pretty much the only thing distinguishing them is the fact they each like different things. You get very little time to interact with any of t
I played this game with my brother on a car trip across the midwest. In the beginning, he just wanted to know what I had been laughing at, and so I told him. And then I read him a bit of the story, and asked him what he wanted to do. Soon, I was reading the entire thing to him, and waiting for him to make a decision, and doing silly voices for the different characters. Eventually I had to stop, since I had worn out my voice by talking constantly for two or three hours. When we got to a hotel, he immediately bought the game, so that he could do a replay, and try to get a different ending than the one we ended up with after the first playthrough. I haven't played many other choice of game's games, and so I can't speak as to where how this ranks as compared to other games of it's type. It is short, and maybe a bit shallower than you would want. But sometimes you don't want to read an epic
Most of the Choice of Games games I've played were engaging, even the simplest ones, compelling enough to make me want to play again (if only to get all the achievements!) but the same cannot be said about The Daring Mermaid Expedition. Sections of it seemed hastily slapped together, much of the narration seemed to think that the reader/player is probably either an idiot or a small child, and it was consistently contradictory about how to obtain a decent outcome. It was impossible to get immersed in the story, and the only good thing I can say about it is that it is, mercifully, incredibly short.
