Player Comments on Escaping The Pit of Sin

No significant SPAG issues and fairly well-written throughout. Decently hard bible quiz. Wrapping it around the concept of a reverse Paradise Lost was kind of interesting and the descriptions of most of the layers of hell was clear and well described. The one exception is what I believe was supposed to be the 2nd circle, Lust. While I understand not wanting to go in depth there both for site and perhaps personal guidelines, it really felt like it went too far in the other direction.

Interesting questions and fun little reward at the end.

Got very useful info which will probably help in the coming time.

I had to use the go button a lot

I loved where I got to show off my Greek Mythology knowledge, and the rest of this quiz was pretty fun! I know absolutely none of the answers, so I was just guessing the whole time.

I will say that this is the first time that a quiz has held my attention long enough to finish. The thing that sets this quiz apart from other quizzes I have seen (other than the 7/8 rating) is the descriptions. You definitely paint a picture of Inferno as in the Divine Comedy.

The inclusion of little details is definitely what does it for me. First the realization of who the devil is based on how much he hates God. Then the description of the layers (with one notable exception, lol) was enough to keep me distracted from the fact that it was a quiz. Of special note was your description of the ninth layer.

The quiz itself is also pretty good. For me, the questions did range from stupid easy to ones I had to think about (you got me with the kings of Judah and the Hercules question), and often times, the question seemed to fit the layer in question.

The last thing I’ve gotta mention is when you described the angel giving you a slow clap after correctly identifying the shortest book of the Bible. That was hilarious.

In short, if anyone wants to read a quiz, this is the first and only thing on my recommendations list. Congrats on staying out of the Pit yourself.

A quiz is perhaps the safest route to avoid the shame pit. So much so, that maybe it should be a rule implemented in contests that a quiz won't save the contestant anymore..?

Lol, I'm just kidding. I gave this a favorable rating because there was thematic elements that made it more interesting than that of some barebones quizzes that are just question/answer.

So for that, thanks for a read that was not dull by any means. I also found out that I'm not very privy on my religious information apparently, because I couldn’t make it past like three questions.

Oh well.

I got me some bibles

Well, it is what it is. And it is a quiz.

Not bad for a last minute contest entry. You should get some credit for coming up with something to publish in the last hours, even after you had resigned yourself to the fate of the SHAME pit.

The writing surrounding the quiz was decent, and I wish you would have taken the start on the first page and developed a complete story out of it rather than a quiz.

Also, I noticed that your appreciation of profile badges extended to you creating your own.

Overall, not SHAME.

Yeah… there were some spelling or grammar mistakes in quite a few places (angle instead of angel, missing punctuation) but you made this in like, a few hours, so that’s to be expected. It’s funny and short, worth the couple of minutes it took to read.
