Alter Ego vs Please, Touch the Artwork
Alter Ego
Alter Ego is a text-based interactive story that's based on the "choose your own adventure" formula used by gamebooks back in the 90s. However, being a digital version has its advantages, the game can be packed with more choices and multiple-choice questions, allowing it to be a lot more in-depth than any of the traditional gamebooks.The storyline in this game is pretty unique too. Alter Ego details the story of a human - you can choose the gender - from birth to death. You'll be going through his or her lifespan, making decisions and in general, living the life of a virtual person.
The game claims to be able to change your life and in some way, it can. If you enjoy story-based games, Alter Ego might just be the game you seek. It's so realistic in its way and that's where its charm lies.
