Basic Premise: Negotiate contracts to slake a city’s thirst.
—
Positives
- The game occupies the same interesting universe as Choice of the Deathless (one of my more replayed titles).
- The new characters kept me amused.
- The last choices in a list often made me giggle.
—
Negatives
- I never felt a connection to my character and many others’ enormous home city, Dresediel Lex. It didn’t inspire awe or responsibility which made me politely ignore half the choices related to its welfare.

Bottom Line: Recommended. While Choice of the Deathless is still my favored of Max Gladstone‘s two titles, this one’s humor and new characters won me over.

Choice of Games’ Deathless: The City’s Thirst is available on iOS, Android, Kindle, and Steam.
