User reviews

New users beware

I only recently re-installed this app because I had it noted as one of my old favourites, but now I can’t even log in. What’s the point of having an app that you can’t use without an account that you’re no longer allowed to access?

Needs work but love the foundation.

I love this app and find it really easy to work with. The current issue is the lack of features and no offline mode. Please give the game offline, allow a tracking of stats, currency and items, and video support.

App has a lot of potential it just need extra work.

Broken (Abandoned by Dev)

Just tried on my iPad Mini 6th Gen (2022 Model) can’t get past the:

Met girl at bus stop - opening dialogue.

Tapped all over, put in portrait mode, back in landscape. One time I triple tapped and it brought me to the next line of dialogue, but after that stuck again. This is broken.

Hasn’t been updated in 2 years. Deleting the app.

Bugged

I have tried to use this App to make what a Visual Novel, but it’s infuriating system made me delete this in a day. Maybe it was just me, but this App didn’t work.

Pretty good.

It seems and works pretty good to me. I have no complaints about it as far as I know. I can see it has a lot of future potential as well and would be very useful for people who are writers, like to read, or people who are just into stuff like this in general. I have high hopes for this one. Keep it up! I’ll be sure to use this app for my creative ideas on stories I want to write.

Just to add this, I’d like to thank you as well. I’ve been searching for something like this for a very good while and this is the only one I’m actually excited for. It’s a great relief to my soul. It shows promise. Please don’t stop what you’re doing. :)
