A harrowing look in my future as I'm confronted by obscure question after question, never able to come up with the perfect answer to satisfy them. They never even asked about my past experience, or to demonstrate my shapeshifting ability.\r\rOn a serious note, I really liked this game. Only issue I found was the textbox at the bottom kept flickering on then off briefly when there wasn't a question for me to answer."},{"author_name":"Gamepopper","author_uid":"21252","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 12:48pm","epoch":1460983380,"text":"This was quite relaxing, the questions are good and sum up what my usual job interviews are like (although based around shapeshifting instead). The noises the shapeshifting interviewer makes is quite amusing.\r\rIt would be cool if the interviewer could shapeshift into random things on each question, to make the process feel less repetitive."},{"author_name":"Leon M\u00f6hring","author_uid":"63620","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 1:45pm","epoch":1460986800,"text":"They never called back ):, the music was very fitting and funny!

I'm glad I played for a second time and realised that you had a bank of questions rather than just one set.

So the concept is inherently a bit flawed TMO - in my case it didn't accept most of my answers!
