Strange Loves 1: Vampire Boyfriends Reviews

Pretty good

Camilleeee017

I love the idea of this interactive novel and I thought the story itself was pretty good but it could've gone a little deeper for my tastes. I also thought the routes were a little short.

A classic choose your own adventure book with an updated flare. The bookmark feature is great and prevents a lot of unnecessary re-reading the same bits over again. It's fun and witty; I'm still going back through it to discover all the different endings.

Awesome!

Holy crap, this thing is cute. The idea of an interactive novel is fun & it's done really well here. Vampires, slayers, MMA fighters, saviors of the world - you can end up in so many ways and I haven't even gotten through half of this. It's good fun and only slightly reminiscent of Twilight, so if you love silly vampire stories without controlling vamp boyfriends and weak heroines, check this out. Totally worth the $2.99.

Entertaining

I was interested in the idea of an interactive book and it includes cute vampire what else could you want..well it be nice if there were other books to choose from

Countless hours of entertainment

It is the perfect combination of a grown up version of twlight and the old school choose your own adventure books.

Not bad

It's short but enjoyable. I wish that you had more branches for going the evil route that wasn't just bad ends or immediate marriage though.

Interesting

This has been entertaining so far, minus a few complaints. I wouldn't quite consider this a "gamebook" so much as "choose your own adventure", as there are no dice rolls or stats. The choices seem limited, mostly leading to quick endings. The writing is interesting enough to keep trying for new endings, however the bookmark system does not work! Every time I've tried to load a bookmark I've placed, I've been sent to the credits with no option to pick up where I've left off. Very tedious! While this app didn't cost very much, I'm starting to wish I'd spent it on something else.

Way fun!

This game is really fun, but it's short. You can replay it a lot though.

Fun, though short

It is basically a well-written, though derivative, choose your own adventure.

Maybe it's just not my taste, but.

It's a brilliant idea. I've grown up interested in interactive stories; I used to always read the choose-your-own-adventure Goosebump books, and I'd make my own in notebooks during summer vacation in elementary and middle school. Even now, they're my favorite kind of games. So that and my love of vampires made me get this. It's enjoyable for a short period of time. It's not as though you're paying for a full book either, so $2.99 is an amazing deal. The actual content in the story (well, stories) are just...pretty plain. A LOT of references to Twilight. The first time I finished the game/book, I married "Robby Patterson". If you pick a theatre career, you're audition for a play where the two protagonists are Ella and Edwin. When I was younger, I loved The books and would have fangirled over this. Now I just found it cheesy. The character did a lot of things I wouldn't do. For instance, I wouldn't be the least bit annoyed over a friend getting a tattoo like a birthmark I had, I'd find it super flattering. The character (who, when I read COYA stories, try to base them off me the first time I try them) seemed very shallow. As did the other characters. To be honest, I just didn't like the writing. The characters seemed fake and the content was so cheesy and almost embarrassingly odd. But I might only think this because I'm in my 20s with a degree in writing. ;) if you CRAVE a vampire boyfriend and deciding between which one, then this is the app for you! Like I said, I would have ADORED this app when I was younger. I also have a friend my age who can't stop gushing about how great this app is. If what I mentioned above sounds appealing to you, then go for it. :)
