I don’t really understand what the developers are going for here. There’s… a lot to this and it’s just confusing. It’s like you’re going through a series of levels and short stories trying to complete them but AI generates the stories and there’s objectives, points, challenged, and prewritten decisions they give you. It’s interesting, I’ll give them that, but not all of it works well, and I feel they just throw a bunch of stuff at the wall and see what works. It feels like they’re trying to go for Reigns but AI. The AI itself isn’t that great and can be fairly nonsensical at times, and trying to get 3 stars in a level is paaaain. And the “characters” you unlock are just sprites that don’t matter and just show up on your screen. The UI is messy too. What even is all this!? What’s the poooint!? Maybe this isn’t just for me. The visual elements and sound cues are neat though. Very reminiscent of Reigns. EDIT: The developers seem to care about the community quite a bit and genuinely want to improve the app. Respectable. Might be worth getting back into to see what they’ve changed. And the fact they’re trying something different apart from generic chat AI but rather trying to make a ‘game’ out of it is commendable. **Developer response:** Wow, first of all, thank you for such a detailed review! Regarding your comments: 1. You're right, Reigns inspired us. 2. This is a simpler version, where the meditative immersion into the story is more important than achievements. They are more like a nice bonus (both stars and skins). 3. As for the sheer number of features, yes, we're experimenting, but we're trying not to overload. You're probably right – there's still a lot going on. 4. We're constantly working on AI. We don't always get it right, especially with balancing quality and the GPUs we use, but the quality is gradually improving. 5. Regarding the confusing UI – we want to make something unique, something that stands out from hundreds of similar games and apps. Perhaps that's the problem. Or maybe we just didn't do it well. We'll keep working on it and we hope you'll come back. Thanks again for the food for thought! ### 3/5 — Chalk it up to not being fully developed I guess? *2025-07-10* The concept is cool and the layout is easy to use and although there is a lot to look at it’s not overwhelming. Your interaction is quite limited unless you want to pay. My issues are you get halfway through the story, some nonsensical option comes up and then the story abruptly ends. I don’t know if that’s because I was using the free version or the AI just isn’t very well developed. The is a cool feature that allows you to create your own story (only once with the free version) but again the AI takes your three ideas and comes up with some completely unrelated story. (My three words were Japan, racing, underground) and it’s was about me driving into a eerie tunnel and i crashed into a magical barrier that turned into a door into some random chicks house and then it ended. **Developer response:** Hi Dr. Philopian! Thank you for such a big and detailed review, it's really very useful. In the near future we will release a completely redesigned story constructor, which will have more settings and options to customize the story, we hope you like it. P.S. Before starting the game, you can increase the number of steps, and with Game Master you can even play in endless mode ### 4/5 — Backround art *2024-12-21, version 2.130* Sometimes the art doesnt relate. Playing a mythical game with futuristic backrounds ### 5/5 — Best AI RPG *2024-09-30, version 2.125* This is the best AI RPG it’s not where you have to buy everything after the tutorial. ### 5/5 — New language *2024-09-22, version 2.123* Hi. This game is absolutely good but please add Russian language please!!! If you want I’ll pay for it ### 5/5 — cat *2024-09-15, version 2.122* c a t ### 5/5 — the ui is the coolest thing ive seen *2024-09-05, version 2.121* as title ### 3/5 — Great game. Too short! *2024-08-21, version 2.118* I wish we could make longer stories. ### 5/5 — Cool tales *2024-07-31, version 2.114* It’s good ### 5/5 — Wonderful Game. Much potential *2024-07-28* Hello! I think this game is wonderful, really great job. My only complaints would be i’d like to know more context. It helps me build a picture in my head of what’s going on, and what my next choices should be. I don’t want to specifically ask “Where am I?” I just wish there was a tab that had all those answers, even maybe an AI generated map would be cool. My other idea was more AI generated scenes, as in if there is a general idea of the context, the AI can paint/draw picture of what’s going on. Kind of like chatgpt if I ask it to draw a photo of someone finding the answers to the universe. Anyways, good job. Thank you for responding to my reddit post on iosgaming and showing me what’s up. Continue advertising and updating and listening to people’s ideas and critics and this game will be a huge success I believe. **Developer response:** Thank you ToNkA! Very glad you like the game and thank you for the reddit! In fact even now in the game you can choose backgrounds that adjust to the story, it's Pixel AI mode, have you tried it? And your idea about the map -- very cool, I'll be thinking about how to get started with that. ### 4/5 — Good game *2024-05-12, version 2.8.0* It’s a very good game BUT there is no endless mode where your adventure is infinite. ### 5/5 — Great,please keep it free *2024-04-23, version 2.7.9* AMAZING PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE KEEP IT FREE WHEN IT COMES OUT FULLY ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not Actually Free to play *2025-02-03, version 2.135* Bruh the moment I get done with the very little free stuff I’m just deleting the game because there is not a single universe where I pay a subscription to play a mobile game. ### 1/5 — Uninspired, way too short, just plain boring *2024-12-24* I mean seriously, text adventure games from the 80s are loads more interesting than this slop. The stories lack any detail, they are W A Y too short, there is nothing to even try and get you hooked into a story not like it matters because the story consists of bland options and boring outcomes. Then before you know it the story is over and now you’re thrown into a whole different universe. The background artwork doesn’t even try to match your current situation. Just AI slop. Don’t waste your time, play some good text based adventure games like Zork: The Great, Urban Dead, A dark room, or adventure. **Developer response:** Thank you for your honest review, the games you suggested are certainly legendary! We continue to work on the game with love and soul and strive for our dreams. I hope you will give us another chance in the future, thank you again! ### 1/5 — Eh *2024-11-23, version 2.127* It not really that interesting with gun tbh and the stories are to short I think I’ll just stick to bing ### 1/5 — Is stupid *2022-02-01, version 1.9.0* Your limited even when your imagination thing is set to mind blowing. I’m uninstalling and never reinstalling ### 2/5 — A Mishmash of Mechanics *2026-01-17* Blegh. I don’t really understand what the developers are going for here.

Thanks again for the food for thought! ### 2/5 — Good but gets boring. *2025-04-17, version 2.143* It really has potential but honestly it got boring and every story is so short and not really entertaining and as it continues it makes it less interesting and less entertaining. ### 2/5 — Too short *2025-01-28, version 2.134* Story’s are always way to short, just as I’m getting into it it ends and I can’t do anything about it ### 2/5 — Not to bad *2025-01-04* The idea itself has a lot of potential but as of this review most the stories spent 12 out the 20 panels talking about running and the rest was the ai trying to figure out where the story was going. Most stories ended with just come up with a good ending (ai suggested answer) good idea but the ai has a long way to go **Developer response:** Got your point Chris, thank you for your honesty! We are constantly working on and improving AI, hope you will like it in the future. P.S. Your suggestion about not only good endings is really interesting, I think how to change and improve this logic, thank you! ### 2/5 — very cool concept *2024-01-26* cool concept but ruined with the stories abruptly ending and everything being behind a paywall **Developer response:** Hey-hey! Thank you for the review! We're just a small team of enthusiastic scientists and need resources to support and develop the game so we are introducing subscriptions. Hope for your understanding! 🙏 ### 2/5 — Extremely unpolished, nonsensical, missing fundamental feature *2023-09-14* After having gone through all the free content, I have 3 main problems with this app: 1) Awful preset options, both the options themselves (little variety, frequently no change in outcome) and in UX (just shows the first X words of the next story segment, as opposed to adding a layer which parses and summarized the option). 2) Story segments go one step too far, leading to excessive and sometimes braindead railroading. For example, the castle scenario starts by forcing the protagonists to exit a besieged castle and enter open battle. Without motivation, such as running out of food and being desperate, it doesn’t make sense to go into open battle, and it’s awful that I have to manually type in something like “actually, I go back inside the castle because open battle would be suicidal.” 3) Most importantly, all of this is made worse by the fundamental missing feature of role playing or writing a story: the ability to ask questions out of character. Where am I? What is my goal? Am I alone? The fact that you can go through any scenario and have the 5 W’s unanswered (Who, What, When, Where, Why) is such a catastrophic failure of storytelling, I’m extremely confused what the goal of the app development even is, because it certainly isn’t to create engaging or entertaining stories. This app claims to put you in the role of protagonist, making decisions that shape the story. However, it doesn’t at all deliver on that promise. A fully prewritten Choose Your Own Adventure style story would be more satisfying, but I understand that it takes a completely different skill set to create. Right now, this app’s redeeming features are that it’s visually interesting and that it (kind of) lets you type in custom responses, even if the language model isn’t able to address those in an engaging way. **Developer response:** Hi DGP-G! You wrote such a cool, detailed and helpful critique review! No kidding we are very grateful to you, it helps us to improve the app and we are very reverent and loving about it and only want to make it better! I won't write a long reply, I think I fully understood all your comments and I'll be honest, we are already working in all these directions. P.S. The only thing is that I believe you thought that the options for continuing the stories are prepared by us manually and predefined, in fact, they are also created uniquely each time on-the-fly with the help of AI, and there are an infinite number of them. The game even has the "ability" to recreate continuations an infinite number of times. Thank you for your criticism and honesty! I hope our updates don't disappoint you. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun *2025-10-18* Good for helping one overcome writers block. The create your own story feature is great. It’s exactly like those old scholastic choose your own adventure books. The aesthetics of the app are really nice as well. ### 5/5 — Amazing AI RPG — Totally Worth Supporting! *2025-10-11, version 2.169* I really enjoy this app! The stories are fun, creative, and full of surprises. I decided to buy the Lifetime Game Master subscription for $29.99, and I don't regret it one bit. It's totally worth it for everything you get, plus it helps support the developer to keep improving and adding more content. I can tell a lot of effort and creativity went into making this game, and I appreciate that. I'm happy to support the team behind it and look forward to seeing what they add in the future! ### 5/5 — Fun ai app to give you some choose your own adventure books *2025-07-10* Just got the upgrade so looking forward to what you can do with it unlocked. **Developer response:** Thank you Barry! Glad you are with us, in the coming days there will be a big update with a new AI ### 5/5 — Good stuff *2025-03-25, version 2.140* Cats rule ### 5/5 — Nice! *2025-02-12, version 2.135* Very interesting and fun I bought a lifetime game master hope you giving me a surpise improvement! ### 5/5 — Still in the early stages, but chill and no ads *2025-01-30* It’s free and you get many stories about 20 moves per story without purchasing something to get unlimited actions per story It’s engaging. I think it’s still in the early forms because the actions are usually pick up or drop like they’re complete opposite actions but you can also type things yourself so that is a plus and the AI will only get better probably. **Developer response:** Thank you for such a supportive review! We are moving on! ### 5/5 — Great *2024-12-17, version 2.129* Insanely fun but I wish it was cheaper for the mastered version ### 5/5 — Good job! *2024-12-02* I loved how entertaining the stories could get and how weird you could make them. **Developer response:** Glad you like the game deadcoen! Thank you for your review! ### 5/5 — I saw the cat kissing the camera gif *2024-11-07, version 2.127* I found it humerus ### 5/5 — Just creative fun *2024-10-03, version 2.125* Made a story where I recruited Gordon, Ramsay, and Goku to fight MrBeast 10/10 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
