"It's Killing Time" is so bad, it's funny. I was actually laughing out loud at how much more ridiculous the story got with each passing chapter. It's hard to explain without revealing any spoilers. But that's part of the problem. The story is so poorly written, it drops spoilers on itself. Predictable is too mild a word. The characters are so 1-dimensional, that you can just match them up with their 'Creative Writing 101' archetype when they are introduced. At first there was disappointment with these flaws. But about half way thru, the story reached a point of absurdity that I couldn't help smiling at how awful it was. I also couldn't help but use the 'vast power of my imagination' to envision the author asking himself - "How big a turd will these Choice of Games people pay me to pop out?" The big twist is beyond telegraphed. It's like when a little kid tries to whisper something to you and its louder than if he had spoken in his normal voice. And this so-called twist is delivered to you by a character that is even too campy to be a Bond villain - it's all just laughable! This is the kind of game you gift to someone as a practical joke. I am seriously asking - was this *meant* to be funny? I can't tell. But I feel kind of guilty wondering if it may have been a genuine effort at entertaining people. Oh ... that's sad. Now I feel bad again. To avoid inflicting upon others the crushing sense of despair that comes from realizing someone might have poured their heart and soul into something so dreadful, I can't recommend this story\/game to anyone. Advice for the Choice of Games people - replace 'ultra-violent' with 'ultra-hilarious' in the game description and repackage it as an assassin parody- but don't tell the author. Then I will come back and give the game a thumbs up.Now I guess I'll go take a magic healing bubble bath that can help cure gunshot wounds, just like the hero of the story does after a tough mission. I'm not kidding. It's just that ridiculous.. It's straight forward. The writing could definitely be better, as there aren't too many elements about any characters, or the story on the whole that I would write home about. It\u2019s fairly predictable, and it\u2019s very easy to navigate the game with a single set of skills without issue or conflict.But with the stream of mediocre and even poor games released from Choice of Games, it was nice to play something that was straight forward. The game was advertised as one where you get to be an assassin, and it delivers on that front. That seems like an oddly simple thing to praise a game for, but that\u2019s exactly where these games have been failing of late. They\u2019ve been so busy preaching its own morality that it stopped feeling like I was embarking on an adventure of my own will. They\u2019ve been taking place in entirely author created worlds with too many moving pieces and not nearly enough words or time to let the reader immerse themselves into it; that too with worlds that aren\u2019t nearly as interesting as the respective authors believe them to be. They\u2019re so distracted at being something else that they stop being choose your own adventures.This was just that, an adventure where you\u2019re choosing the details, and steering the story. It\u2019s not one of the truly better Choice of Games entries, but I have to give it a positive review for having the right idea, when others are trending in a worse direction. It was an enjoyable game about being an assassin. Brilliant game. I'm an avid reader, and i greatly enjoyed this game. must buy at this cheap price.. It's straight forward.

It was an enjoyable game about being an assassin. I actually liked the story a lot on the first playthrough. Yes, it might be a little easy to see through in parts, but I feel like that about a lot of stories ... I read a lot and you learn to recognize patterns after a while. I liked the writing, too, even though it might perhaps be a little better every now and then.The fact alone that I'm rating this game should show I like it ... I usually don't write reviews.. This game is bad yo. Choice of Games usually runs from OK to Pretty Damn Good, and this was...I wanna say, embarrassingly bad?. I wasn't expecting much from 'It's Killing Time' due to the 'Mixed' review score, but I picked it up in a mini-bundle from 'Choice of Games,' a publisher who I really like. I've played maybe a dozen or so of the 'Choose Your Own Adventure' games and really like them. I've mostly gravitated towards the highly reviewed ones though, so when I decided to play this one I expected to 'kill' some 'time' and that's about it. Wrong! I really enjoyed 'It's Killing Time' actually. I played through twice, once as a 'good' guy and once as a 'bad' guy. You play as a contract killer embroiled in a deadly conspiracy of murder and deception, all the while trying to maintain a successful dossier of contracts. The thing I liked most about this 'game' was that I was not being punished because I did not stack the correct 'talent.' You can be deadly, cunning, or intelligent and it will serve you well and not gate you off from succeeding. Many of the CYOA games have a point in the game where you were supposed to have built up a specific attribute that will be used at a crucial point in the story and if you didn't randomly choose the right one you fail. It's essentially the death of the 'choice' aspect of the story which defeats the purpose. IKA instead allows you to role-play the character YOU want and makes it rewarding by using your chosen skills to solve the problems that come your way. Thanks!As for the story itself I won't spoil anything but it's a fairly straightforward tale of espionage including some nice surprises and a decent twist. What the story does certainly attempt (and succeed) at doing is making you feel cool. The descriptions of your daring exploits are well-written and have an eye towards flair and drama (NOT gritty realism) that make you feel awesome (John Wick-esque). Overall this was one of my favorite CYOA games and one I highly recommend. It's meant to be over-the-top and implausible but it works and is a fun ride.. This was not the kind of game I was expecting. It's very much focused on your "family" of assassins and your connections to them. You're trying to solve a mystery, but you're forced to go on these assignments that have nothing to do with what's going on. Pros:-Story was long enough.-Opportunities to increase your stats, more often than similar games. -There was one interesting fight, but I don't want to give spoilers. You can choose to romance this person as well, which I thought was pretty cool and went well with my character. -The reason 'why' part of the mystery was a twist I wasn't expecting. But the 'how' I saw coming a mile away. Neutral:-Tries really hard to give you romance options.-What you did will give you the ending of the story, don't have the option to choose. -Ending will take into account reputation, fame, money, character fates. -Secrets and hidden achievements.Cons:-The writing is pretty bad, I found alot of it silly and ridiculous. -Alot of the time the game ignores your abilities and decisions. A scene just plays out with you dropping bodies like you're a super assassin. You always accomplish your mission. -Spend alot of time hanging out with your assassin friends and descibing the beauty around you, rather than focusing on how you're going to complete your mission. -Way too many characters, very one dimensional archetypes, didn't care about most of them, they're boring. You meet a bunch of characters then next chapter a new bunch of characters are introduced. How many assassins are there?!?-Didn't like the references to previous missions you haven't gone on. Makes you feel like you're missing a part of the story. -Disappointing final boss fight.Final Verdict:Game tried really hard to make you a team player who cares about their "family". You may find the story more engaging if you play your character this way, and not a lone wolf like I did. If you like the story there's certainly good replay options. But for me it just wasn't worth the time or money, this is one of the weaker CYOA games.. Don't mind my playtime on this, as I've previously beaten this game on the iPhone version.This is easily among my favorite, if not being my absolute favorite, of the interactive novels presented by Choice of Games\/Hosted Games. If the alluring fantasy of being a sleek, cool assassin in fiction has ever appealed to you, whether it's through playing Hitman, The Darkness, or taking on the Dark Brotherhood quests in the Elder Scrolls series, or being enthralled by movies like John Wick and Pulp Fiction, this game is for you.The writing does a great job of making your character feel formidable and impressive, and rewards how you want to personally characterize them from their personality to their skill set with a rich and interesting set of possibilities. It's one of the closest and most rewarding things I've found outside of some other conventional video games that lets you more or less live out what it would be like to be the star in a high octane action film.I would freely encourage anyone who thinks they might be interested to check out COG's other games\/novels as well (all the free demos let you play out the first three chapters, giving you a fair taste of whether it'll hold your interest or not, so you can't really go wrong there), as I've found most of them to be pretty enjoyable, but I can definitely say there's probably nothing else they can offer that's quite like this. Of course, the story isn't 100% realistic, but where's the fun in that? If you can suspend your disbelief enough for an interactive novel the same way you would for 1980's Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, but don't want a story that's completely mindless or unbelievable, give the demo a shot at the very least (no pun intended). Not many of their games are usually $5 on Steam, but I'd say this is one of the instances where it's definitely worth it.The first time I beat this game, I immediately started another playthrough. This is one I can definitely see myself coming back to again and again over time. It'd be a mistake not to try it if you think you might even be the least bit interested.
