I recently started playing Choice of Games. I enjoy the usability of this app. It’s super easy to use. The authors are good and I enjoy playing their stories when they capture me. My biggest critique agrees with a consensus that Choice of Games could really use load and save features so that players can change actions without needing to speed replay the entire game. Dungeons & Decisions by Delight Games shows a good example of this feature in use.
I am a big fan of the Choice Games brand, including the Choice of Games line. I’ve purchased quite a few of their books, and for the most part, consider all my purchases to be well worth it. I also really like reading all their titles on one app like this, and prefer to continue buying the books here instead of on individual apps/on steam/elsewhere. However — the app is notably very old, and hasn’t seen new features in years. There are a lot of cool things that could be done with a central Choice Games hub like this (at the very least — let us save snapshots of our character pages, and organize our books!) and I wish we would we more development for the app itself! I think a lot more people would use the app if there were compelling advantages to purchasing the books on here.
I really like the products this app gives you. You get to read two or three chapters for free for any book that is released to see if your going to like the book and mechanics the authors made; this is immensely helpful in choosing purchases and knowing you are going to enjoy them. There are lots of genres and even author categories (they are pretty good authors) to help you in your search of picking your favorite book/games out of the bunch. There even a free section, while most book will make you watch an ad to read still there’s are a bunch of free books to enjoy. For beginners you should probably start with something to learn the mechanics like choice of dragon I also liked choice of the Vampire at first and both are free to play. Give the ap a try it’s frustration free and full of enjoyment. But befor you make a purchase do make an account just in case something happens.My suggestion would be let us write reviews or give a link so we can support our favorite creators in making us our beloved content through the app for people that don’t have social media. It would be nice to express our excitement and appreciation to some of the incredible authors that use this forum as a medium to give us there creations. Their are probably places out of this app to find them but I don’t know where to look.
I love the variety of stories and that they have free trials. Always loved the books from this company so I am glad to play even more! However, I would like it if there was a save/load feature. I think that after you play through a story once normally, you should unlock a save/load feature to save and load the game at any point. It is annoying to have to restart the whole story every time I choose the wrong thing when I am trying to get achievements. Or instead of a save/load feature, maybe I could choose to go back to the beginning of the chapter or the last chapter or something. Also I wish we could leave/read reviews for individual books. I would like to tell the creator of Social Services of the Doomed that I wished we could have an option, when asked, to say that we like men & nonbinary people. (And women & nonbinary people obviously but that’s not my choice) Right now I would have to say I like only men, only nonbinary people, or any gender. So yeah, being able to review individual books within the app would be a good addition!
So, I have played a good bit of Choice and Hosted (their other brand) games. I actually don’t mind the one app because I prefer a centralized location to access all the games I had. I play a lot of RPGs on the console, and I read in my spare time so I love the combination when I need something casual and in between. Plus, many of them are not as kiddie as similar games in the app store. There is also a nice mix of genres.You can preview the game before you buy, and if you are signed up for their mailing list or notifications, you learn when new ones drop. New stories are usually discounted for a week or so. There are also a few free stories mixed in there.I enjoy, through their combined brands, many of the series. I replay a good bit of the stories. There are other on my list to eventually. I have just been wary of a few. Off the top of my head, (some of these might be the Hosted Choices app as well); I like Way Haven Chronicles, Choices of a Mobster, Samurai of Hyuga Series, Hero Rises Series, Blood Money, Versus Series, Tin Star, Choice of Rebel, etc. I recommend the overall app to people who like to read or enjoy RPGs.
Hi! In the latest version of our app, you can now rate our games and see how other people rated them. To view ratings, tap the "Detail" button on the Games list. You can also sort our games by average rating using "Order by: Rating." To leave a rating, play a game through to the end. You'll be prompted to rate the game on a scale from 1 to 10, and then sign in to have your vote counted.
I love this game, and I understand the ads bring in needed revenue, but since the last time I played, there seem to be more ads than before. This is because, when I finish a chapter of a story, there is a 2 hour timer to play more. I close the story and wait, and when I come back, I have to play an ad to open the story again. Then, once the story is open, I have to watch ANOTHER ad to open the next chapter. Two in a row feels redundant. If they were just when I opened the story or between chapters I’d understand, although having them when I open a story is annoying if I accidentally click out of a story and have to watch an ad to go back into it. Lastly, one of the ads that played was horrible and disturbing, depicting a cartoon woman cornered in an alleyway and the legs of the man cornering her as he dropped his pants. It then showed the woman pregnant. It’s clear that was one of those cheap games that uses shock value to peddle their puzzle game and doesn’t actually have that content in it (I looked at the reviews for THAT app) but I wish y’all could perhaps screen the kind of ads you show, or perhaps report one, as there was no way to do that.
