CHOICES THAT MATTER is a collection of epic text adventure games similar to the classic Choose Your Own Adventure books (CYOA). No one player can discover the entire story in a single play through. See how many other players visited the same place as you, each time you conclude a story arc. Are you ready for the most epic text based game out there? ** OUR STORIES ** ADVENTURE 1: And The Sun Went Out Approximately 600,000 words and 2,400 choices in total! What if the sun inexplicably vanished only to return hours later? Investigate with your AI companion, Moti. Uncover conspiracies. Discover ancient religions. Travel the globe. Find out who is murdering scientists and what this has to do with the random disappearances of the sun. This is your journey, and only your choices can expose the truth. ADVENTURE 2: And Their Souls Were Eaten You have a gift. With your gift, the dead are never truly gone. But what if there is a dark side to your gift? What if there are those who can pervert your talent, and alter the balance of life and death? Travel across a steampunk 1830s Europe, where metal is magical, giving powers to those who wear it. Learn more about your ancient gift and what it means for you, your family, and humanity. Uncover the nefarious plot to destroy all life... and fight against time to stop your enemy from destroying everything you hold dear. ADVENTURE 3: And Their Heroes Were Lost You wake up in a dirty prison cell with no memory of who you are. And, you're not alone. Who are the other prisoners? What are they to you? Are they your allies... or enemies? Will you escape? Try to find out who you are? Why did the people who captured you steal your memories—instead of just killing you? Travel the world as you uncover the details of a past that holds many secrets, and a future that is in peril. "What’s really innovative about Choices...unlike traditional gamebooks that have a definite end, Choices: And the Sun Went Out is a continuing gamebook that will be updated weekly, allowing you to progress through the story over time. As you make choices in your story, it will advance in ways completely differently than other readers when weekly content is added." - PocketTactics.com This app is supported by video ads which can be optionally disabled by purchasing a story pass.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Wunderverse at none against Choices That Matter's shown. Wunderverse also leads on review sentiment (81% vs 72%). Choices That Matter's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.1) and ratings volume (2.3K vs 64). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Choices That Matter holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Choices That Matter has 2.3K ratings behind it against 64, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 81% of Wunderverse's written reviews are positive against 72% of Choices That Matter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Wunderverse ships an update monthly, Choices That Matter every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
