IF-Review
There are a lot of positives about this game, and a lot of negatives. Robb Sherwin has always been most notable for raw style, a way with language that draws on a lot of expletives, and vivid characters of a certain type. All of the above are to some extent present in this game, but so are bugs and some implementation flaws.

Robb Sherwin's Fallacy of Dawn is his best game yet. Somewhere in a bleak future we can only hope is more distant than it seems, protagonist Delarion Yar scratched out a living breaking software copy protection. Then some mysterious assailants put an end to his career, not only pounding him into unconsciousness but operating on his brain as well. Now Yar can no longer perceive the electromagnetic spectrum correctly. Thrown out into the city of New Haz with a criminal record, meaning he is unable to leave without paying a huge tariff, Yar cannot even effectively type his own name.

Reviews from Trotting Krips
Alright, first of all, let's get this part out of the way, for those of you who are still scoring at home, despite the fact that nobody's written anything on this website in three months, and I personally have not written anything anywhere in like three years:
Chicks Dig Jerks: Begins in seedy bar, moves swiftly to cemetary.
A Crimson Spring: Begins in seedy bar, moves swiftly to cemetary.
Fallacy of Dawn: Begins in sushi bar, moves swiftly to morgue.
Let me be the first to say that it's nice to see Robb Sherwin finally break out of that rut.
