But the limited choices and the garbled text was too much. Nothing I selected really seemed to matter and one of my stats glitched and went up to 110%. Relationships with characters seemed pointless and the story is confusing. Don’t bother. ### 4/5 — Great story! *2017-03-21, version 1.0.3* I felt it was over all an amazing story that even though I feel like there is not many player decisions and there are quite a few grammatical errors, but I over all was quite impressed with the story after my first play through and can't wait for the 2nd part! There might be quite a few spelling and grammatical errors but I don't feel it took that much out of the game or made it unplayable so keep that in mind. ### 2/5 — At last *2017-03-06, version 1.0.3* I've found a poor Choice of Games interactive fiction app. The quality of the writing is appalling and unbelievably it *gets worse* after the early pages. Unfortunately I am so used to excellent CoG apps that I didn't even try it before buying the IAP. ### 2/5 — At least run it through a grammar checker *2016-10-24, version 1.0.3* Story could be good, but English is obviously not the author's first language. It seems as though the story was written in a different language and then translated to English. Poor spelling, grammar, etc. ### 2/5 — 😕 *2016-10-21, version 1.0.3* Overloaded with grammar, punctuation, and other errors. There are too many of these for me to enjoy the story. Please fix! ### 4/5 — Grammar and spelling *2016-10-19, version 1.0.2* The grammar and spelling needs work but what great story this was if the make a part 2 I would read it. ### 2/5 — Editor dearly needed *2016-10-18, version 1.0.0* I honestly think it's a great concept and the story definitely has the potential. Yet with all the spelling and grammatical errors it really kills the flow of the work. If an editor just refines it and an update is released it'll be sure to be great ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Revisions are easy! *2019-05-01, version 1.0.4* If I were to write “thsi gmea is grtae” I would be ashamed. They writers really should have looked over their (notice it is I after E) work even once, they would have caught hundreds of simple mistakes. ### 1/5 — It’s broken *2018-03-20, version 1.0.3* Am I the only one who has a problem with the gender selection? I picked female but everyone keeps calling me he. I’m so confused. ### 1/5 — Great concept, terrible execution *2018-03-11, version 1.0.3* The grammar and writing in this game is awful. The text sounds like a robot who can’t speak English. I love the idea of a playable book and think this is a cool concept but they seriously should have worked with a professional editor before putting this game out. It’s not okay at all to charge for something that reads like someone who can’t speak English at all wrote it. ### 1/5 — What *2018-01-16, version 1.0.3* Honestly a total waste of money. I can’t understand what the “author” is trying to say. I’m only five minutes into this, and trying to makes sense of it is hurting my brain. Do not buy it at all. You may be thinking it can’t be that bad. It is. ### 1/5 — It's called Editing *2017-02-24, version 1.0.3* Loaded with typos and poor grammar. Story had lots and lots of potential but its start was very slow. Then came the MAJOR leaps in logic and story gaps. Example: I'm playing band I get to my new room and there are 4 people there. They start talking like they know me. Only I as the reader never read about meeting them. They just pop up and I'm scratching my head wondering if I missed a page??? Think Magicians tv show only worse. Thank goodness no one had to pay for this. IF BIG if you are willing to play along and create your own understanding of the story it could be a two star rating. ### 1/5 — Proofread *2016-11-30, version 1.0.3* Double negatives, Bad grammar, comes off kinda forced because of the bad flow. It's a good story but story really needs an editor or something, would make it a lot smoother and easier to read. ### 1/5 — 💩 *2016-11-17, version 1.0.3* The story kinda just did it's own thing regardless of what the player chose to do. And the lack of player choice makes it less of if a text based game. Grammar is definitely a huge problem in the game. It looked like they never ran a spell check in it cause I saw "thier" instead of their at least twice. ### 1/5 — Terrible translation ruins the game *2016-11-13, version 1.0.3* I only managed to get a few pages into the game. I couldn't go any further because frankly the writing was so poor, I could barely understand what the author was trying to say. I can only assume it was translated from another language, but in that case the author should have run the script past editors before releasing it. As it is, the whole game has been ruined by poor writing, poor translation skills and lack of editing. ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2016-10-09, version 1.0.0* It's painfully obvious that English is a second language for the writer, which makes it nearly impossible to get immersed in the story. The story also reveals poor writing skills which is compounded by the lack of an interesting setting. It's a cool idea but poorly executed. ### 2/5 — Awful grammar and spelling *2020-03-09, version 1.0.4* It was hard to enjoy reading. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome story *2021-09-02, version 1.0.4* What can I say the story is great ### 5/5 — Hoping for second book *2021-03-25, version 1.0.4* Best story that I’ve ever read😍🥰 ### 5/5 — I love it! *2020-01-30, version 1.0.4* It’s absolutely amazing I hope u make part 2 ### 5/5 — Im Wondering *2019-03-16, version 1.0.4* Will there be a part 2 or like a continuation? ### 5/5 — It’s a really good story!! *2018-07-14, version 1.0.4* This story is interesting and I love the way it flows. Yes, there are some editing and grammar issues but nothing major. It’s a nice, easy read!! ### 5/5 — The best text game I ever played *2018-06-30, version 1.0.4* I’ve played a lot of text games and this is by far one of the best. I love how the plot unfolded with each choice and word. I really would recommend this game to anyone who’s into this type of game. I also love the unique personalities of each and every character. I’m extremely excited for the next part of this series. ### 5/5 — Great! Cant wait for the next part *2017-03-14, version 1.0.3* Ignoring a few grammatical errors, this story is great. I cant wait for the next part! ### 4/5 — Great story *2020-06-10, version 1.0.4* could use some touch up with the grammar and spelling tho ### 4/5 — Very good story *2019-10-15, version 1.0.4* I greatly enjoyed the story. I wish there were more choices in the story...maybe add in a feature where you can go back and change a decision without having to restart the whole story and also show a few pictures of the characters and their powers. Please hurry with the next part....that cliffhanger at the end had me replaying the story multiple times. ### 4/5 — Typos *2018-09-05, version 1.0.4* Though the typos and grammatical errors were somewhat distracting, I thoroughly enjoyed the story --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
