I actually purchased this book. Short and to the point heist story. The characters and the plot are all specifically set up to accomplish the heist with a bit of a rivalry thrown in from another criminal and an inspector. The biggest problem in this one was character development, the book just moved really fast. The plot was well done with a nice twist at the end and the story has great imagery. It's a decent story but a bit short.
The story is alright, but as far as COG games go, it's lacking. It's very short. The romances are boring and predictable. It's fine for a quick read, but I wish I hadn't spent money on it
Decent heist story
Decent read but waaaay too pricey for it's very short length
I love this game, it's one of my favourites of COG, but after recently playing for probably the twentieth time I kept getting the same exact ending. I would betray Bouchard on one and team up with him on another, but the ending stayed the same. If you do manage to get the game to work well it is fantastic!
Not bad in fact it is a very good game just that it is too short still a good game.
I've played many a choice of games/hosted games. This one Is good with a satisfying ending however feels a bit too short and leaves a little something to be desired. I finished it in one sitting (bout an hour and a half) and does feel a tad scripted. Worth a buy if your looking for something to quickly check out
Bought most of your games and frankly this is the only game I've reviewed. It's short, sweet, and fast-paced. It'd be PERFECT with a sequel.
It's so short you could probably finish it in 20-30 minutes. Great concept, but short. It seems that after the first heist things just fall apart, character development ehhhh, it's not low quality, but it's not the best. What I mean by that is, u get a whole back story and picture of 2 characters, but for the rest u get enough information for a vague picture.
There is only one heist. After that the game is already finished. The replay value is so weak too. Whatever you choose the end will still be the same. I want a refund but oh well.
