This was probably more like 3.5, but it could have easily been a 5 if the author had either integrated the game aspects earlier and more thoroughly, or left it out entirely, and made it a straight fantasy (this would have been even better, in opinion). As it stood, the game elements were confusing, and pulled you away from the story as it progressed.

Another downgrade, for me, was the ick factor. The 3 main characters are risen dead, and as the story goes on, they start to fall apart and...ooze. I could tell the author really relished this part of it, but I didn't.

Other than that, it was fun, funny without sacrificing drama or tension, interesting, and well-written.

*edit* I forgot to put this link: It's a cool fan created drawing I found on Deviantart of the characters.
