What was with the racism?!??!

My only real complaint about this Gamebook was the forced ethnicity and ethnic point (or lack there of) of the storyline.

The ethnicity of Caucasian is thrust upon the player out of nowhere. In the middle of the adventure. When gender certainly is an option.

The player is forced to tolerate ethnicity based negative comments for completely no reason what-so-ever. It was weird.

Im sure the author was attempting to make some kind of comment on race in Australia,
and how poorly the Caucasian community is treated by the aboriginal people,
but it really ruined the book for me. Its only point in the story was interpreted by me, as nothing more than a shoddy attempt at saying "see, theyre the ones being racist!" I repeat- WEIRD.

The big question remaining: WHAT WAS THE POINT?

Why didnt you just ask the player what they look like in the Infinite Universe? Not every "Average Joe" is Caucasian.

BUT STILL 4 STARS because the game experience was better than the trope-abusive storyline.
