This is a prequel to To Be or Not To Be, North's "chooseable-path adventure" take on Hamlet; it is a short ebook (just 35 pages) that was available to Kickstarter backers. I read it very, very belatedly. You play as Yorick, trying to get a job at Elsinore entertaining Kid Hamlet so you can fulfill your role in his story-- dying so that he can hold your skull during Act V and pontificate on death.

It does not have the sprawling complexity of To Be or Not To Be or Romeo and/or Juliet. Instead, it's very linear; you are consistently presented with three choices, two of which will kill you, one of which will let you keep playing. North is a funny writer, so I was entertained, but I found that even at this brief length, the joke wore thin. Nice to read but I wouldn't rush out to find a copy. (I don't think you can get the ebook version anywhere anymore anyway, but it was reprinted as part of the collection William Shakespeare Punches a Friggin' Shark and/or Other Stories.)

What an excellent beginning to an imaginative new world. Really enjoyable.

wonderful story!! Dee really annoyed me at first, but she grew a lot in these 200 pages. there were some amazing sibling interactions, and the last scene suggests that their dad's motives are similar to Mordin Solus's, so this is pretty great. I'm really curious to see what happens next.

i'm a little surprised it's primarily tagged fantasy because I think it's more sci-fi, although definitely with some fantasy elements
