Become the main character of a romance novel! Choose your path to passion and find your Happily Ever After. Since 2009, the team behind Choice of Games has created high-quality interactive novels in all genres. Now, our new Heart’s Choice label puts romance at the center of the story, and you at the center of the romance. There are no graphics or sound effects, so we can focus on the story. Every game is filled with vivid, fully-developed characters and complex narratives that respond to your choices. Every path is always open to you: we never charge extra for the best options or most interesting storylines. Unlike other games where you have to work your way through "failure" endings to get to the "good endings," in Heart's Choice, you'll always be able to choose a Happily Ever After with the character (or characters) you desire. Whatever gender or orientation you want to play, there will be a Heart’s Choice game for you in our catalog! And whether you like your romance sweet or smoking hot, you’ll be able to find a story that you love. Let your heart choose!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Heart's Choice at 86% against Custom Bingo's 38%. Heart's Choice also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (303 vs 11). Custom Bingo's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
