Episode - Choose Your Story vs Gone Home
Episode - Choose Your Story
Episode - Choose Your Story is a rather interesting game that may bring to mind the choose-your-own-adventure gamebooks of old (at least for the kids from the 90s) though the game features a whole lot mote cheesy romance stories rather than epic dragon-slaying adventures. Catering to female teens and tweens, the stories are episodic and, unlike gamebooks, has animated characters. There isn't as many choices in this game as you might expect, with a lot of them mainly involving the changing of clothes - apparently, clothes makes a man... ahem, I mean lady. There are some obviously positive choices, which are highlighted in gold, from time to time, but in order to choose these choices, you have to spend premium gems. Naturally, you'll only have a limited amount of them until you have to start paying real money to buy more.Each episode of a story, with the exception of the first episode, will require passes to play too, but at least you'll get a nice number of passes for free daily. That said, it's nice to see how the app allows creative writers to monetize their stories in a more interesting way while earning a following in the process.
If you enjoy interactive stories with choices such as the Choices: Stories You Play, you'll love Episode - Choose Your Story. Do give it a try!
Gone Home
Gone Home is a story-rich, point-and-click adventure game where you find your childhood home devoid of life after returning from a year abroad. The mystery of it all sets you off on an investigate mode as you examine clues and uncover what had happened to your family using what they have left behind. The storyline you'll gradually reveal is both heartwarming and incredibly relatable as it touches on a family's struggle with uncertainty, heartache and change.Being a point-and-click adventure, this game doesn't have any puzzles to challenge you or intruders who will attack you on sight. There isn't anything supernatural about the whole event so there's no need to fear looking behind your back or into a mirror. All you need to do is to find and collect clues, and eventually piece together the story of what had happened to your family while you were away.
This is definitely the sort of game that a fan of story-rich games would love. The entire game's premise is centered around its storyline and hence, it's as good as it gets.
