Description
Groundbreaking immersive game book featured by Apple. The unique experience with exciting plot and magical effects where you are the main character in a mysterious world.
Maginary is the unique fiction novel where your are one of the main characters. It connects our real world with the world of your imagination through the iPhone.
Michael Sterry — the previous reader of this book — woke up in a strange, far distant land called Anzo. The only thing he's got is the medallion which somehow broadcasts everything into your imagination. You will need to use your brains, your hands and even your legs to help Michael survive in Anzo and get him back into our real world...
----
This unique immersive experience will allow you to get lost in your imagination with the help of:
* Over 70 beautiful animations with typography that will turn it into magical experience (think of magic diary from Harry Potter)
* Audio and video sfx that will be adjusted to your reading speed
* Original plot with interesting twists and unusual characters
* Original soundtrack
* Marvellous puzzles and interactions with your iPhone
* You as the book’s main character
-----
We wanted as many people as possible to enjoy this experience. That's why we decided to make the first two chapters for free and In-app purchase for the full game.
This is a game for those who believe that the coolest graphics and augmented reality can be found in their own mind.
For the best experience, use iPhone and headphones.

I Don’t See A Problem With It!
I like story games but I Don’t like ones that’s ask you for money to play especially bad ones that are not even good, but this game is beautiful This is the first time I've seen a story game that is actually fun and the developers put their hearts into making it so the readers/players can actually enjoy it and use their imagination but like all story games you must pay to read, like I said before I like story games but I don’t like ones that ask for money to play especially bad ones but this one is different because this is the first story game that actually makes me want to pay to read it, it’s so interesting that you can’t help but want to pay for it,But what I hate more than a bad story game is a Review saying bad things to a good game “i refuse to fall for this money gimmick trap” so what you have to pay to read it, it does not even cost that much it’s not like they are asking you to pay $100 to read I mean they are people to if they made the whole game free then the only thing they would get are the people’s joy it’s like having a job that gives you candy instead of money you should be happy they made a wonderful game like this only $4.99 if you where the one doing it I bet you would have made the price higher (I would have) so to be honest
. I Don't See A Problem With It! (Btw I love the way you cleverly lowered the prices 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽)

Impressed
This is quite different from anything I’ve seen before and I was pleasantly surprised with the concept to add the reader to the story. I’m giving 5 start to the app because it’s quite remarkable and innovative, but I wouldn’t categorize as a game. A game would prevent you from moving forward if you are incapable to give the right answer. It would prevent you to move forward if the time ran out. Nonetheless, I was so drawn to the story, the interactions and the sounds that I forgot time for a short while. Favorably, My advise is to create challenges to the reader. Maybe create difficulty levels, where the reader can choose how he would play and read the book. I thought the story was interesting, but I believe it would’ve been better if it was a bit more realistic. Maybe a suspense story, resolve a mystery or murder case. The possibilities are endless.
Further more,I also have to disagree with the tittle. The game only gives the illusion of control to the reader, because the end it’s already set. It would be nice to have a game where every choice you made had a different consequence to the end of the story... Not every ending would the same and the reader would have a more personalized experience... maybe someday, We’ll get to play such a game. For now, let me just say... this story rocks!!! Worth $5 dollars and some... thanks again. Keep the stories coming!

Hello L. Thank you for your review and for your time❤️. I am glad you liked it.
I totally agree, that this is not actually a game. I also have some problems with categorizing it. I prefer calling it "experience". But still — games is the closes category available on the App Store.
Talking about title — you mean "quest powered by your mind"? Feel free to contact me via hello@maginary.app
My screen is cracked, so I cannot give 5 stars 😐
Wow, I didn’t think I’d like this at all at first, let alone PAY for it! I never buy full versions of anything, so you’ve obviously convinced me to delve into my pockets for a once-in-a-lifetime application payment, and it was worth it. I really would enjoy a few library books to be made similar to this. Or for usage of books I had to study in college, I’d have actually enjoyed the course more lol. Bravo to the creator! Very well put together, my heart raced with excitement, it was humorous in some areas, I had some anxiety from the eerie music, plus the awesome artwork/effects, all that jazz! My hubby even helped me on a few pages. I only wish it were longer, to get more of an unfolding of everything in vast detail. I think the creator(s?) held back by sort of smooshing it into a few chapters. Mike pops up and I’m helping him out, gets moving on his quest, and then he (sort of) goes back to normal life (slight spoilers). I needed more time to let the plot thicken, you got to bring it to a boil then let it simmer and allow those flavors to meld together, come on now! Then it’ll be a truly satisfying dish, appetizing to the eyes and easy on digestion! But seriously, 10 chapters minimum, or maybe an E N T I R E book series? Eh? (One time payment, if you do consider actually taking the time to read this review please, I’m broke but I liked this very much. I’ll be first in line, until then, I hope you enjoyed that $5! 😁👍🏾)
