    If you've never played Dungeons and Dragons this is your chance. The game is your dungeon master leading you on an adventure through the back roads of Kentucky. The Dungeon Master lays the adventure out in front of you and you choose your path through this journey. It's a very interesting experience. The choices you make determining your path through the Dungeon masters imaginings. IfIf you've never played Dungeons and Dragons this is your chance.

    If you want to play games that respect your gaming time this is probably not for you. This game has a lot going for it but at the same time contains many things that diminish its playability.

    While it took me a while to get into it, I enjoyed my time with Kentucky Route Zero. It has style, it has charm, and more importantly, it has the interesting concept of allowing the player to shape the foundation of the game along with the characters and their motivations. It’s something I don’t think I have ever seen done before, at least, not in this sort of scale. Fans of story driven games such as this will have a great time with it. Don’t expect a lot of action or hard puzzles. This is like cracking open a choose-your-own-adventure book and shaping the words on the page. If that is your thing, you’ll love this.

    In short, Kentucky Route Zero is an amazing indie, a game that is not for everyone because of the number of lines of text shown on the screen and, in some way, a very different title to everything else we have played in the last years. His narrative of sometimes somewhat complex but the immersion that he achieves on the part of the player in the 10 or 12 hours that it takes to complete it is total. It is certainly a highly recommended experience for those looking for an introspective adventure that makes them reflect.
