Just saw this and came here to post - I see it's been up a few hours already! I LOVE this "genre" and would hope we see even more games like it.
And by genre, I mean the text adventure / Oregon Trail / tactical RPG genre. It houses some of my favorite games, and I wish more games would incorporate character driven "text quests" that result in story line alterations, gear, stats and "other."
I'm hoping this one is like a few of my recent favorites: The Banner Sage, Expeditions: Conquistador, King Arthur The Role Playing Wargame and a slightly different spin (lacking "some" of the RPG aspects and tactical combat but still an amazing game) King of Dragon Pass.
