This game may not be to everyone's taste but I find it to be an enjoyable one to kick back and chill with..
The characters are engaging and the collective stories Interesting.
The player's choices during the discovery of particular stories can change the theme of the story from humorous to scary etc and the growing of stories due to their retelling means they have a bigger impact upon the disposition of the listener. The walking can indeed be tedious but there are other travel options available such as hitch hiking, buying a train ticket or even sneaking onto a train. The map is easy to navigate in order to plan your next journey even if it does become a bit cluttered with icons as the numerous stories are collected. Overall, a unique little gem that I am still enjoying.

Slowly trekking across america to gather stories for a creature you lost to in poker doesn't sound like it should be fun, but it is.

This ain't no visual novel, but you can hitchike or ride the rails to go faster, which is nice.
But you may get more stories by plain old walkin'.

Great stories. Great storytelling style. Interesting set-up.
And watching the stories grow and change through re-telling is interesting.
As it hearing the stories of the other wanderers and vagabonds you meet by the campfire.
With both human stories and supernatural encounters, it feels very much like you're walking the line between urban legends and real stories. And even the most boring story grows interesting as they are told and re-told.

VERY american.
Plus, I'm pretty sure I learned some American geography in the process.

A far better game than I expected it to be.
And excelent storytelling.

I recommend this game but with caveats. I had quite a few problems with it on the technical gameplay side but the content and story were excellent. The idea behind the gameplay was good but I think the execution lacked some finesse. Additionally there were a lot of glitches that I ran into (not being able to scroll through certain menus, certain events not triggering even though there were visual icons for them, etc.) as well as a lot of lag even though I had the graphics at the most basic of all the settings. Overall, I believe the content of the game makes up for the frustration caused by the glitches but that might not be the case for everyone.
