My Shelf: My Choice, My Episode vs Ori and the Blind Forest
My Shelf: My Choice, My Episode
My Shelf: My Choice, My Episode is a mobile game that is quite similar to Episodes or Choices where you'll get to "experience" various stories and influence how the story goes by picking dialogue choices or making important appearance-based decisions based on what you wear and how you look. Whether you like the idea of engaging in high school drama or fall for a mysterious yet suave vampire, this game has all of these stories and more! New chapters and stories are also added on a weekly basis, so you'll definitely have enough stories to read and enjoy.Unlike the other story apps though, My Shelf doesn't seem to have a section that allows players to create their own stories. Maybe this is a feature that will be added in later down the road. After all, the game already has all the elements in place for such a feature.
So, overall, My Shelf: My Choice, My Episode is a pretty decent alternative to games like Episodes or Choices despite lacking a pretty key feature which allows players to create their own stories and share them with the community.
Ori and the Blind Forest
Ori and the Blind Forest is a rather unique action-platform game that doesn't only feature breathtaking graphics with a special hand-painted art style that could only be called "striking"; it also has a heartwarming story of courage as you join Ori, a young orphaned "guardian spirit", as he travels across the world in search of the creature responsible for destroying his homeland in hopes of possibly saving it. Ori is no mere ordinary spirit though - you'll need to learn and master a variety of abilities to help him overcome any obstacle in his way. There are plenty of secret locations, side stories, and a range of difficulty modes to keep you engaged and playing for hours on end!Complete with brilliant soundtrack to boot, Ori and the Blind Forest proves that a perfect blend of story, graphics and gameplay make a game; and not just big budgets or already established game franchises. Even if you're not into indie games, this is one game you may still want to try.
