Dragon Racer

The ending killed me, like, what? Chances are there's going to be a book two (Least I hope so.) Anyways, the character creation was a bit forced and blunt. Could've been smoother, but it wasn't 'please end me' bad. It's a meh for me, but sways to the 'Yeah, I'm not going to talk about this often.'

This isn't the greatest interactive fiction I have ever read, feel free to skip to the end to avoid my rambling. There was a ton of exposition, world building and background info that you had to read through that slowed down the story and I got bored reading through, on the plus size it did remind me of being in school (lol). I find with fantasy worlds like this you kind of need all that background information because it's not our world but it broke immersion for me sometimes. I would have liked more time exploring the bond with your Dragon and more time with each of the characters, especially for just friend stuff. I found with one of the character if you don't side with them from the start they treat you like your this evil untrustworthy person later on even if you haven't been playing that way, which was weird for me. There are also still some bugs. The only one I found were in Dragon 101 the notes you can collect didn't show up so keep that in mind, there is a test. I liked the different personality on the Dragons. I think my Favourite is Blue, but they are all pretty likeable. I also enjoyed the character in the story. I think that they were cliche for this genre but I don't care about Cliches if they are likeable and I liked all of them, even the rival to an extent. I also enjoyed the end tournament section. I chose Puzzle key and I have a really good time. Though as a side note this is the only time in one of these games I wished for a save function in these games. I know that none of them have it but damn. I also enjoyed the MC. Again a bit of a cliche but I found them likeable and that they had enough custamizability to keep me interested through multiple play throughs. The last thing is the overall story. It has a very familiar star wars with dragon feel for me. It's not a replication but there were some similar story elements. It also reminded me of Eragon to an extent. That being said, I love both of those things so it works for me All in all, I enjoyed myself, which is the most important thing for me when I play these games. I don't think it's perfect and there are other choice of games that are probably better written like the Wayhaven chronicles or Fallen Hero: Rebirth. This one was still pretty fun. I really enjoy Dragon Riders, I think that bond is really interesting and I will likely read this again, I have it both on my phone and on Steam (I tend to play on my phone more often) I am excited for part two, the epilogue left on a pretty decent cliffhanger and I look forward to the rest of the series.

I absolutely love this game! The narrative is so imerrsive and compelling. I really feel for the characters even the ones you can’t romance. I’ve seen other reviews complaining about lack of choice and that makes no sense to me. It’s an interactive novel not an open world game. Even open world games have parts that have to be done to move on. You really get to see your choices having an impact on your game. If you don’t have a high enough skill you can’t perform a move during a race. A simple choice of right or left might mean the difference in first or third place. I’ve played the game multiple times already trying out new choice combinations.

this game is fun, don't get me wrong, but its one of those that's better off being played on mobile. Computer wise it has everything the mobile version has but somehow is less fun. I recommend getting this on mobile but on steam, i'm sad to say that i don't.

A very mixed experience. I found this game very enjoyable at the start - engaging enough through the middle - and then from my perspective it fell apart in a rushed and halfhearted ending to the degree I don't think I can call it a positive experience overall, even if I don't hate it. None of the friendships (including that with your dragon) culminate into anything beyond very short scenes that left me feeling very little for the characters - or even the sense that we knew each other particularly well at all. It's worth a play if you are happy to get into the dragon racing and don't hold out much hope for the development of your character/the ability for introspection regarding the world you are in/their relationships with others/the world to feel consistently immersive. A somewhat fun but highly disjointed experience that left me with an unpleasant feeling at the conclusion.

A fun choose your own adventure book! This basically a Choose your own adventure. You've got to be a reader to enjoy it, that being said if you are a reader then you will most certainly enjoy this game! All of the characters are well thought out, as is the fantasy world you reside in. There's plenty of replay value here, I still haven't finished but I've been enjoying myself. There's even romance opportunities, a definite plus. You can play as a nice guy or an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, all up to you. All in all I definitely recommend this game for those of you who like to read.
