  This game is really boring and slow paced. The pace at which everyone speaks just makes you fall asleep.

  Honestly, just read the book. It's incredible.

      Should be all 3 books.

      But again, I reiterate that game is a bit of a slog to get through.

        no, it's just pillars not any of the other books in the Kingsbridge series

        I personally enjoyed the game which from what I gathered is the general consensus from other fans of Ken Follet's books that have played this game

          @Barf: So it’s just chapters 1-7?

          I’ve been googling and I’m getting mixed results. Some say it’s chapters 1-7 which takes approx 5 hours but then I read the game all up takes 15-20 hours

  I played this on PC and thought it was great.

  I had already read the books, though, so might have enjoyed it more than someone who doesn't already know the story

  It's basically a book, but in a game form?

    Kinda like a point and click book game rather then a visual novel
