I like the idea, it provides some good game play while giving a chance for people to read poetry they might not have read before. It might have been good to have poetry in different reading levels or length. Although I really enjoyed The Nameless City, it was long and might have made some people not care to finish the first poem.

... By the way I love the nameless city it reminds me of a childhood memory in a way.

end of a love song for j alfred prufrock has a glitch- if you fall off right at the very very end- at a certain spot you wont respawn anywhere- will just be stopped by a black screen. you know the routine + this so the creator knows.

A unique idea. I have no idea if I actually retained what I read, but it's refreshing to see something different, yet meaningful. 5/5
