I love this game. I love the mythology, I love the directing, I love the characters, but above all I love the thoughts that it left me with. For me KRZ succeeds wholly as interactive fiction. It has themes that touch upon the most crucial aspects of what it means to live, to be free, and to die, while weaving a really well thought out vehicle for the conveyance of these things in the writing. KRZ advances the medium in the context of interactive story telling, and in a way that can only be done uniquely as digital art, and this would be the first thing I'd recommend to someone who enjoys reading but might not understand or respect video games.

I'll probably update this review with more thoughts at a later point, but for me this is a must play. Or must read, if you will.
