What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"This was a great concept and a story. It inspires thinking about the vital importance of preservation of knowledge. About the endless possibities of a curious and aspiring mind, having access to it. I only wish that it was longer. Hope they will make an extension of it some day."
Ivan Yordanov
"This is probably the most intelligent thing to come out of Choice of Games. Ever!"
Shawn Redmond
"I liked it so much. After playing it, I finally found a way to romance the King and I wish it lasted longer. I know romance isn't the main focus here but if only it was more explored and expanded upon. Regardless, it was still a fun experience, whether it teaching the prince and guiding him or just in pursuit of knowledge and inventions."

"No other game ever gave me the chance to be an ancient scientist."

"Pretty solid game, bit short considering the cost."

"Good story"
Constantinescu David
"This was a fantastically written story with a a clear and concise plot. The way they told you how your decisions and stats affected history was truely a brilliant twist, imagine if they did something like this with a story about Sparta."
Thorin Anderson
"Not my cup of tea!"
Erica Jenkins
"This book was certainly well written. It had a distinct plot with 7 different endings, three different stats that affect how you play the game. You are essentially a tutor for the child of the king and your actions affect how he grows up. It was short with a lot of variability in gameplay. The characters are well defined."
Adam Young
"Very enjoyable."
