requiring re-reads of passages, and saying that the text message-style sentences often included lengthy run-on sentences that impacted the pacing, and at times grating text talk such as abbreviations, slang and misspellings. TouchArcade and Kotaku appreciated Tidbeck's involvement in Mage, due to the authentic Swedish touch they could bring to the Swedish setting of the game, and their experience in the weird fiction genre; Pocket Gamer also enjoyed Mage writing, preferring it over Vampire due to its higher stakes and the use of the player character's moral perspective. Kotaku appreciated the use of visual distortion effects in Mage to communicate the strange nature of Magick and its effect on the world.
