Story Flavor:
The first sunrays were crawling hesitantly on the serrated city walls. The dark shroud of night was slowly withdrawing. The catapults had been shooting all night. Murk had managed to ward off two assaults from Wayward’s troops – one at the main gate and one by water, near Icewind Quay. Only when the morning light scattered the darkness did we see the price we had paid to survive that night: new cracks and holes in the thick city wall, a destroyed defensive tower, more homes reduced to rubble, and new fires throughout the city. At least a few dozen dead bodies laid scattered in the ashes, debris, and dust.
At nightfall, Wayward’s war drums began their rumble once again. The catapults were still silent, but they would undoubtedly start singing their deathly song soon. For nine days, Wayward’s hordes had sieged Murk, and every night the city walls groaned under the volleys of stones and fire hurled at them.

Decent add-on.
In reference to my review for the previous Dust and Salt title, I was only able to play through 11 minutes of this sequel/expansion/whatever you may call it. I couldn't be bored to death for any longer.
It's a fun spin off from the main game. Unfortunately if you've played the main game you already know how the game is going to play out. But the writing is fairly decent and you will have to explore a few paths before you get the proper ending and the 'To be continued' banner. It doesn't add anything really new to the formula, or add much to the world, but in short, if you like the main game then get this. If you haven't played the first game - get and play it first and then see.
I had a great time with this sequel of Dust and Salt. It's more like a different view of the conflict and can be played separately from the first part. We lack the actual battles here (HMM style), but instead we collect items and data. If you are a gamebook fan, The Battle for Murk is a must!
I downloaded the battle of Murk yesterday and was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere of the game, including graphics, music and overall feel. Another thing I liked about it a lot was the simplicity and speed of the game engine. The story is great as well and it will make you feel like a real life hero for saving your town and friends, but only if you are smart enough to succeed.
Its a good short game. worth the full price to me.
Exactly what I expected: great writing with real choices! The pretty world map and the soundtrack add a layer of immersion into the story.
