![]() It could be argued that they're intended to embody each kind of reaction to an apocalypse scenario, but it still doesn't excuse how stupid and boring the book was because it lacked characters with any semblance of depth. They have one and exactly one motivation from start to finish which they carry out with single minded efficiency. ![]() To say the characters are two-dimensional would be misleading, they're one dimensional. This the stupid, audience yelling, frustrating kind of decisions that make you put the book down and do something else. If you're wondering, no, this isn't the goofy kind of decision making that leads to hilarious punch lines like so many Adult Swim scripts. They make retarded decisions that frequently risk their lives and the lives of those around them, and they're ALWAYS oblivious to the consequences. Each character can be summed up in 5 words or less. It seems like Yahtzee took different aspects of his own personality and gave each portion it's own in-text character. Truly horrible, unlikable, retarded characters ![]() Scenes are described with great detail, which adds to immersion Slapstick humor worked well with the unique apocalypse scenario Summary: His first book, Mog World, was much better than this one. ![]()
