Good but Not a Favorite

I did enjoy this game and replayed a few times. It has less replay value than some of their other games and choices seemed to have less impact. The setting/world and characters were very interesting though, and overall, I am glad I played.
Played it three times already!

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this interactive novel. It might have something to do with my background as an attorney and the eerily hysterical way in which the legal career is captured! I was intrigued enough to play it several times in a row. While there are some choices that clearly do not affect outcome, there was enough divergence that it was a substantially different story every time. Don't expect that your character will be personalized (even the advertised option of choosing your sexual orientation proves to be fairly irrelevant), but there are certainly many paths that you can take as you make decisions about ethics, your career, and personal relationships. This bold, satirical CYOA is a keeper.
Best So Far!

I've played a bunch of games by this creator, and this is by far my favorite. My usual complaints with their games are they're either too complex to the point I can't understand what's going on, remember all the details, or the game is so simple I can only play it a few times before I've figured out every possible ending. This one was perfect in its level of complexity and I'm sure I'll be coming back to it many many times!
My favorite Choice game

This interactive story of demonic office politics is a delight, at times creepy and at times hilarious. The writing is top notch, even by the high standards of this developer, and this particular story should make anyone who's worked in a law firm smirk (or sigh) at the accuracy of its details.
Should've played sooner!

I've played almost all COGs but I put off playing this one because the idea of playing a lawyer just didn't appeal to me. That said, this was a *great* game. The writing, setting, and characters are strong. The choices you make greatly affect the game experience and the ending. Your skills are fun and interesting, and there are plenty of relationships to explore. Yes, you play a lawyer but your clients and cases are just plain cool. There is plenty of engaging drama, and the end is very climatic and satisfying. I just finished it, and I look forward to trying again - it seems like there are many different endings. I liked playing this game a lot, and as many reviewers have stated, I really hope there will be a sequel or another game set in the same world. Definitely worth your time and money, give it a try!
Great! The First Time Around

Literate, error-free prose that allows the reader some input in navigating the plot's myriad twists and turns. A bit disappointed in the depth and number of choice offered, however. Usually, I satisfy that craving by re-playing. The huge drawback to the series for me is the absence of bookmarks or chapter save points, even. To replay is to wade through pages and pages of text which does not change much if what I desire are subtle changes in approach to maximize (or minimize) trait scoring. Lacking that, at least inform us of how much charisma or craft, or whatnot we'd need for a particular choice selection. I'd still recommend as this story is like an economical novella that is written with skill and creativity.
Loved it!

Interesting, beautiful world-building. Lots of choices with consequences. A couple different romance options. Just over all a really fun game with a great story! I've played it many times.
