Episode - Choose Your Story 12+

Great! It amazing but...

Ok episode overall is my favourite app and 100% the best game you can get!! I have had it for a long time I think for 3 years and it has never left my side nor been boring!! It amazing and so creative! I love the community and all the stories! I also love the way they put new things out every Thursday e.g New clothes or animations but I really REALLY wish they would update the mobile creation at least once or twice a month! I find it awfully difficult to make a story on the laptop, with or without guides, the mobile creation really helps to make it easier, the only downfalls are that you aren’t able to add your own backgrounds, and I may say there is a selection but that selection is too small for my liking. As well as a small selection of backgrounds there is an even tinier selection of animations! I really wish you would update the mobile creation and add in wider choices of animations and backgrounds! I have many ideas but am not able to do them due to the lack of animations and backgrounds! Another idea would be adding in overlays and zooming! That would be awesome to have! It would really make the mobile creation very advanced and easier to make scenes seem more realistic!! Overall I am giving episode a five star ⭐️ because it is great and they always surprise me! I definitely recommend!!

Hey! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying the game!

Good

I love episode - it’s really good and should be downloaded, however there are a few things that should be told before downloading. No.1: Some choices use gems (Gems are a type of episode money used in the app as well as passes, which you need to read an episode.)You do miss out on some things because of having to choose the bad choice when not having the right amount of gems needed. Although this is really annoying, it doesn’t happen with all the stories: stories created by users who play the game do not have gem choices, so I would recommend them if you don’t like the gem choices. No.2: I think episode would get more readers if you could publish on the app. This is because, on the website, it involves a lot of coding and it is very confusing! This is an opinion and doesn’t NEED to be done, but I think episode would benefit from this change. No. 3: Although the passes are annoying sometimes, I can live with them. But maybe episode could start new readers off with a few more passes than 2, this way people could just binge read stories while also boosting episodes popularity.
Other than these things, episode is literally the best app ever and I really love it! Other apps might get repetitive or finish easily/really quickly, but with episode there’s also something new to explore! Those three things I had to think of for quite a long time before writing down, and that is purely because episode is great and has hardly any flaws.

Gems

Hi! So the game itself is really awesome (mostly), with some lovely immersive stories and plots. I have a couple of requests to improve the game though. Firstly, I don’t have episode VIP as £13/ a month seems unfair in comparison to other memberships on different games. It also doesn’t come with many benefits. Because I don’t pay for episode VIP, I am constantly short of gems. Most storied require a large amount of gems for the best playing experience and I think that the prices should be lowered. For example, often I come across the option to wear a dress - for 29 gems! I feel that the game would be better if options like these cost a far more realistic 19 gems, give or take. My second grudge is that in most stories (excluding a few very good ones) love is the main focus. I feel that other plots could be fun too. Not only that, but the player often is not able to choose the love interest. I was playing a story once, and I was very attached to one of the characters. During one scene, my character was speaking with their best friend and stated that they, ‘just aren’t compatible with _____.’ And instead of being able to control whether or not I believed we were compatible, I ended up having to date a character that I despised (the main love interest.) I know Episode do not control the love interests in stories, so i’m not certain how much good this will do but I just wanted to raise that as an issue.
Thank you for developing a great app!
