"The Dark Eye: Book of Heroes aims to throw that notion out the window, bringing a bunch of bite-sized stories together that can be played one at a time in just about 20 minutes each. That means players looking for long sessions can play multiple stories at a time, and players who have families and other responsibilities can jump in, get their hardcore RPG fix, and get back to business."
