Wayhaven Chronicles: Book One

Literally the best interactive fiction ever omg If you like romance, fantasy, mystery, and found family trope : this one is for you! I played so many times now and every time it's always a pleasure : you can really make your own MC come alive, and you can really see the difference in personality depending on which type of character you're creating (which is great bc sometimes MCs tend to be just meh but this one really does have a personality like ahhhh it's sooo good) Then all the love interests ... are just amazing, I can't even really tell if I have a favorite bc I really appreciate all of them. Though I have to say I have a preference towards F bc they were the one I chose during my 1st playthrough :') ALSO the dynamics between all of the characters = SOOO GOOD !!! Like I said earlier you can really feel the found family trope in this story , like they're adorable :(( All I have to say is please buy it and the rest of the series too (can't wait for book 4 while im writing this haha)

[h2]你是暮光之城的粉丝吗？[/h2] 首先，这是[b]浪漫小说[/b]主内容是[b]恋爱[/b]，其次，这个系列总共有7本，就出了三部，所以不知道后面会不会有变化 [h3] 然后，重点！买前必看！！！ [/h3] 问问自己：1.我喜欢暮光之城吗？2.我能接受自己是男/女贝拉吗？ 如果都是“是”，那恭喜你，你很适合wayhaven！ 如果不是，那你就得考虑一下了。 但是，除开上面两点，我个人感觉作者做的其实也还行，毕竟MC的决定也能影响结局，各种特质也能影响对话。就是第一部感觉没能让我很好了解这几个ro就得选线，很多特质又都是在后面书里慢慢浮现的，这点我感觉有点那个

A denouement of some drama and interest is preceded by a slough of tedious events; as much as half of the 21 chapters could and should have been summarily dealt with in a prologue. The mayor, the journalist, the friendly pathologist and the boring job of a small town detective do little to support the main theme of supernatural horror; neither do the lacklustre murders going on, or the unthreatened, uninteresting banter of the vampire investigators. Successful Choicescript games are packed with consequential tasks and events from the start, rather than failing at great length to build up any sense of horror through atmospheric or psychological description. They challenge the player rigorously and often for engagement and excitement, rather than tacking a couple of stat tests onto almost twenty chapters of stat building through inconsequential dialogue. Generally, they build relationships either in-game or on a strong pre-game foundation. Whereas in Wayhaven the MC's mother drops into the narrative with about as little sense of foregoing relationship as the four paper-thin vampires the MC is expected to fall for from a standing start, on the strength of by-the-numbers dialogue rather than any intensive shared experience until the very end. The game does give the MC an unusually large range of dialogue options and personality traits, but these have very little effect on the game. The second and third instalments may be very good games, for all I know or ever expect to.

Slow pacing, shallow characters, stupid protagonist. Maybe the author was going for dramatic irony when so much of the story is letting the player know what's happening while the character is too dense to connect the dots? But it's just annoying.

It's been a long time since I had been engaged so much into a piece of media. I haven't played any interactive fiction before, and I am mind-blown. I have always been a lover of all things supernatural, with vampires holding a special place in my heart. As such, this book truly spoke to me, as an avid reader and as a gamer. The best way to describe how this book made me feel, is "It felt like I was 10 again, and my mom just showed me twilight." If you love books, supernatural media, romance novels and feel that many modern titles, especially in the romantasy genre, just don't do it for you, check this one out. You will not be dissapointed.

its incredibly interesting and hard to stop once you start

Great choice book game. Love the character development and the whole three book saga. Recomend to anyone who loves a good romance and all things supernatural.
