Hey All-
As Spring Thing is 3 weeks away, I thought perhaps it was time for another blurb help thread, since the last one was pretty useful.
Post your blurbs here and get feedback, help, and constructive criticism!
I admit to wrestling with mine, swearing at it, and hating what I have.
Here’s what I’ve got:
“Mirror, mirror, on the wall, play this game and have a ball!” No, wait a sec. That’s terrible.
“Mirror, mirror, in the game, helps win the throne, and girls, and fame!” Ugh. Ahem. Moving on…
Once upon a time, and that time is now, a prince embarks on a quest to inherit the throne and find the fairest of them all. Guided by an enchanted feather and a magic mirror, he journeys through the forests, towns, and towers of Grimm’s fairy tales, meeting witches, wolves, and a bevy of potential brides.
Fairest is a merciful parser-based adventure game with 13 different endings, written in Inform 7, with a play time of around an hour and a half. It contains violence.
It’s too long at 119 words, and I think maybe it really sucks. But I’m kind of frozen about how to change or improve it.
Also, wondering if anyone would like to see a Cover Art help thread. I bet we could help each other with useful photos and drawings if anybody’s struggling with that.
