### 5/5 — Lov this app

*2026-08-24, version 27.00*

I love this game it’s like lov in real life

### 2/5 — Too expensive

*2026-08-24, version 27.00*

I love the app but for every story you need diamonds and if you don’t have diamonds you can make the choices you want or if not the outfits you want their can’t be a middle were you don’t pick the best outfit but at least you get a decent one not the most ugly clothing you have ever seen not everyone can afford it

### 1/5 — Avec tout le respect que je vous dois

*2026-08-24, version 27.00*

Mais il faut diminuer les choses payantes

### 5/5 — I love ittt

*2026-08-24, version 27.00*

I absolutely love this game it’s too good

### 4/5 — Getting gems

*2026-08-23, version 27.00*

Honestly awesome game but I don’t like how I can’t “choose my own story” while having to pay for it with gems i remember years ago it was easier to get gems on episode but now people are greedy and there’s no other options to get free gems

### 5/5 — DOWNLOAD IT!!

*2026-08-23, version 27.00*

i have loved episode every since i first downloaded it!!which was like, a long long time ago lol. i'd recommend it to anyone. i literally get so hooked into each one that is made. you can definitely tell that the author's have took their time to make each and every one special!

### 2/5 — Good but could be better

*2026-08-23, version 27.00*

The stories are usually very good and super fun, but you have to pay so much money for gems, and if you choose not to, it always sabotages your story pretty badly. So I wish either gems were cheaper or had less of an impact on the story.

### 5/5 — Favorite game

*2026-08-23, version 27.00*

I’ve been playing episode for years and I still love playing it

### 2/5 — good but.

*2026-08-23, version 27.00*

you should have to give up diamonds everything something gets juicy

### 5/5 — Epic

*2026-08-23, version 27.00*

Best game ever.

Favourite thing to play
