Never played but no? Your girl is preset, so you don't have any say in her appearance or name. All you do is get her to classes to increase her traits so she can do both preset and random events. Also, it isn't like you can take classes willy-nilly. Your mood will decide what kind of classes you'll take. Getting what you want might take some time to get all the while the events come rolling in and suddenly, assassination attempt! You happen to know how to pull and treat an arrow wound and you proceed to grab your scepter to beat the shit out of your attackers because you studied pole axe combat.
Note, that may or may not happen. My first run ended with me being assassinated while I went to my friend's birthday. I tried to use bow and arrows to defend myself but since I didn't know archery, I failed at that. Then I got struck by an arrow which I clumsy fiddled with, ending with me pushing the arrow to my vital organs. Ded. If only I studied combat medicine so I can patch up quickly and used my sword skills to use. Again, fuck archers. Now I think I made it sound much more exciting than it really is but it is amusing.
If only if you can customize your kingdom and character...
For a $10 game, it is fine I think. Decent amount of replay value. I can see myself giving a run or two every night or so. Of course it would be better if it was around $5. I just couldn't help myself with this one.
