Not bad, and a good concept, but a bit sparse and without all that many options. I'd love to see a more detailed, longer story about this--it's an interesting time and an even more interesting place, and I think a lot could be done with it. But, for what it's worth, good work on what's here.

Educational, but way too linear.

I agree with previous posters. Nice idea. Quite linear, a few grammar mistakes. How about more detail on the actual thwarting of the plot and the capture of the assassins? Surely there are many decisions to be made in that bit alone.

The Black Hand appeared in name at least in the first edition of some Hardy Boys novel. I wish I could remember which one...

A great educational story that could only use a bit more description and less linearity.

Very historical, but *extremely* linear.

Too short and too linear, not to mention the only End Game and Leave Comments page was at the end, but other than that, it was pretty good.

Very interesting. I knew nothing about this history, I'm embarrassed to say, and now do. Well written with minor errors. Great work!

Interesting game, but historically inaccurate. "Princip was able to throw the lethal bomb which killed the Archduke" is in the game, but really the Archduke was shot by Princip.
