About this game

The gods have chosen you to lead your tribe on a deadly pilgrimage to the Valley of the North Wind! When future generations recite your saga, will they sing of your glory or your downfall?

"Saga of the North Wind" is a 300,000-word interactive fantasy novel by Tom Knights, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

Your people roam the Great Steppe, chased and challenged by the fearsome Tribe of the Black Wolf. Their leader, the shaman Zhan-Ukhel, calls forth savage magic from Chernobog, the god who rules their tribe. Your tribe must have a leader who can call down protection from the gods. That leader is you, and this is your saga.

Rule your tribe as an iron-fisted chieftain or as a benevolent guardian. Will your allies support you on the field of battle? Will the gods come when you need them most? Do you even need the gods to smite your enemies, or will you seize divine power for yourself?

An eerie glow dances across the stars tonight, stars that bear your name. Listen, now, to the Saga of the North Wind!

• Play as male or female, gay, or straight
• Become a shaman of the spirit world
• Fight the ancient, powerful force, Chernobog who rules your enemies
• Battle in the arena or make a daring escape from captivity
• Call upon the spirits for aid in your struggle against the Black Wolves' sorceror

The story itself was very entertaining and even frustrating events turned up boosting my skills. However the ending was a problem. Despite my abilities being more than sufficient to carry ne where I wanted to be, they weren't sufficient to accomplish my goal. It didn't seemed fair that despite all my hard work, suddenly I wasn't good enough to get the ending I wished for, though that itself might be a plus for other players.

this game is not good enough for a 4 or 5 star. for starters - No save points. terrible idea if you're going to allow people to die in the game, restarting the entire game sucks. second - you don't add notifications to show what stats our choices increased and decreased(By the way, why does any of our stats decrease?), this just makes the game unnecessarily a lot more difficult when I try and gain increases on certain stats. Other than that, decent Book. Great story, romance options, etc. 👌🏾

I tried the first three, free chapters (with ads): It is a choose-your-own-adventure text game. The story is very linear however, the choices mostly change some statistics, which later may have results on success of an action, or available choices. There are several statistics about your success factors like e.g. charisma, advisor preference, favor from gods, size and wealth of your tribe. These stats are not available from the start, but get added over the course of the first three chapters. The setting and the the story are a typical good-versus-bad survival fantasy epic, the comparatively high and deverse amount of stats, together with there impact on success, add a strategy aspect. The story telling is good, there are no inconsistencies across the choices. There are some cases where choices seem important, but have no impact, where the description of the choices does not match what then happens, or where the impact is a bit blown up.
