    I expected a decent game. Instead, I received a masterpiece. The music isn't really my thing but it is very well done. The characters are great (with the exception of one) and the game really does have you feel things. The best way I can describe it is like a Telltale Life is Strange game. I'm not a fan of two of the romances because they feel kind of stale, but the other two are done veryI expected a decent game. Instead, I received a masterpiece.

    This interactive musical will knock the socks off of theatre kids and fans of Greek myth alike. It’s definitely worth a reprise to smooch the whole pantheon. [Issue#31, p.75]

    An interesting musical role-playing game, well written and excellently acted but with a little too much carelessness on the aesthetic side and songs not always memorable.

    Stray Gods is an interesting and mostly successful experiment in creating a new gaming genre, one that I am ultimately hoping leads to more refined experiences in the future. Despite a few grievances, I enjoyed my time unraveling Calliope’s death and diving into the lives of these diverse Idols, all while tapping my feet along to some well-constructed songs.
