Seems like a fun text adventure game. I like the use of the visuals and map. However, I stopped playing because the ads were too distracting and annoying. I lost my immersion I tot he story. Change how the apps are displayed or include an IAP to disable ads.
But the ads ruin it. Add an option to remove the ads and I will buy it.
Very choose-your-own-adventure type game. Devious puzzles and many endings to unlock. Multiple play throughs nearly required to get the best ending. The ad bar at the bottom is a non-issue, if it really bothers someone, use a bookmark, piece of paper or a book to cover it up. Loving the multiple paths. The rocket launcher is hilarious. Great stuff.
I love what I've seen so far. But I have one HUGE problem with this game, I can't hit the top button, half the time it does bothing, the other half it hits the second or third option.
The game offers no saving and if I leave the app at all I have to start all over. Had a few times when buttons did not work so I had to force close it and I have start over Never got to the end because of this.
This is a game where your choices affect your outcome. I found myself immersed in the game and invested in the outcome. I would recommend this game. I got through it once and am excited to unlock some of the alternate endings. I really enjoyed the story and the format of the game. My problem with the game is that the top option choice is often unclickable on my iPad mini. I have to save and reload the game every few minutes to get it to work. It is very frustrating and really slows down game play. A minor issue is that there are many typos.
I feel like overall it's a great game however options don't work no matter how much you click on them leaving you wondering what you might have missed out on if they were working. Also some moments just give an illusion of control for example the science with the cross necklace both choices result in the same thing happening.
