![]() Now to dangle Daria and Kendrickstone in front of them… The RPG-playing friends I’ve known quite liked it. Life of a Wizard, from the perspective of someone with sort of moderate experience in RPGs and stat-building in general, seemed a pretty straightforward stat-building game with lots of variations in endings and lots of interesting paths and achievements. Which is fine! I feel like that’s not the reason to play a game book, but, even with Lords of Aswick – which is super stat heavy – FairMath played havoc with character builds. There’s not a CoG that I feel really does stat building in a hard core meaningful way. Also 80 Days because that game can hinge on your money management in frustrating ways. The wonky way you gain stat points in robots would probably drive a hard core stay builder nuts.Īlthough in all honesty I would tell a big numbers person to get the sorcery series from Inkle. It’s a good bridge to show the hidden variables idea, that what you say is tracked even if it’s not directly shown. It’s a shift away from what we think about with typical games and more about the writing and thinking. ![]() It’s also a way to talk about how we relate to art, and is more about deep thought then stats. You also get a lot of value for your money! I really liked that Failing your company gives you totally different paths that result in happy outcomes and that you could get a robot arm after a bad event. It’s also interesting in the fact that “failing” doesn’t always result in a bad outcome. Choice of robots simply because of how many options it has! I still haven’t gotten all the possible outcomes and every time I replay it I end up with a different result. There’s also no way to really fail, sure you can get a “bad” ending but it’s forgiving of mistakes with the legend system reduction for deaths instead of forced restarts, and there’s nothing that makes me want to quit more than getting really close to the end of a game and then failing for no reason (Tin Star when I got eaten by lions cough cough)įor somebody that likes interactive fiction in general I recommend choice of robots and creatures such as we are. Heroes Rise for all its flaws shows that better than most games. The reason being is that it’s super linear and when you’re first getting into game books, having something where you can see step by step how your actions effect your stats with out hidden variables changing things gives you the basic grasp of how game books work: choices change stats which effect what you can and can’t do. Zombie Exodus (pay on Chrome Webstore only, but appears to be a multi-part story with pay for later parts)įor somebody who has never played interactive fiction, I would start with the heroes rise trilogy. Mobile Armored Marine: Mission to Far Hope Silent Gear (pay on Chrome Webstore only) (I haven’t played these games, but there is no obvious paywall at the start, thus this at least cuts down on the games to check for pay) I get why you are asking and I’ll start looking into it right after this, but honestly, CoG games are mostly cheap enough that when I recommend a game, I don’t mind paying for their first game, it’s less than a subway sandwich after all and then they get the game they want to play ^^įree games on all platforms unless stated otherwiseĬhoice of Zombies (with in-app purchase for aditional class)Ĭhoice of Romance: Affairs of the Court (pay on chrome webstore, I assume it’s because you get all 3 parts there where as you have to pay on the other platforms after completing part 1)
