IF Comp 2024: Civil Service
Okay, this opens in a surprisingly atmospheric, interested, poetic-but-not-annoyingly-so way. I’m quickly hooked.
After a while, the poetic qualities grow stronger. It’s hard to know what the plot is, and sections seem disjointed. I’m not sure what my choices are doing most of the time.
…
Wow, that was WEIRD.
I think I sort of understood the plot in the end, and a lot of my confusion was due to the deliberately mysterious writing. I’m not sure it worked, not quite. But the writing suggests this author will appeal to some people, and has plenty of talent.
