This D-Mod is much better than the Kill Bill series, but it's not like that would require much.

Good: There is a somewhat interesting story and the enemies aren't impossible. A D-Mod set in a snowy land is a fair change.

Bad: The grammar is poor. Many prepositions are missing, and the author seems to repeat those mistakes.

Also, while the enemies certainly aren't too hard, they are now too easy. There is a total of six enemies in the whole game, and four of those can be killed in one hit.

As soon as I kill a "boss", (s)he drops gold which I cannot have, as I automatically enter a cutscene so I won't get to pick it up. Not that I would use it anyway, as there are no shops to spend it in.

The gameplay is constantly being interrupted with cutscenes. About every 2 screens or so you have to watch a cutscene with unskippable conversations. Now that I'm at it, some of the cutscenes have very long waiting periods, which make me think the game crashed. Indeed, once I finished the D-Mod, I still don't know if I was supposed to Ctrl-Alt-Del or was it just a bug.

Overall: A fair improvement from Skull's previous D-Mods, but still bad.
