    A Little Repetitive

    Seems like a decent enough indie title at the start, it has an interesting premise of a book that lets you replay the same events making different decisions each time and logging Truths to uncover the true ending. This is fine and good for the first few times but quickly gets tiresome. The combat is way to slow even after getting an attack speed up gem. They have sword crafting system to open doors and have different abilities as well as a few gems to socket to get things like increased defense or attack speed.
