I can't decide whether I'm awed or horrified. I think I'm both in equal measure. Fascinating, frightful.

The Slow Game has to be one of the most compelling ideas I've seen in a long time: resonant, believable, fascinating to imagine. Like a murder-mystery game, but played out with all the visual power of tableaux -- commedia dell'arte turned to grim tragedy instead. I would love to see it performed for real. (Er, without the poison, please.)
