I'll ultimately give it a 4, but it was a struggle. The first 60% are SO SLOW, but if you can make it past that point, the story plot picks up and stuff actually starts to happen. 
The black plague is extremely backround, btw. Its the catalyst for the company to band together, but its not otherwise relevant at all. Guessed three of the lies, but the end twist got me.
