The games by Hosted Games are an indie segment of an indie dev; people make text games with choice script, then Choice of Games hosts them. Thus, they vary wildly in quality. As someone who has played a lot of these games - a truly unholy amount, in fact - I can honestly state that this blows every other game by Hosted Games out of the water. And most of the games by Choice of Games. And, frankly, on the merits of story alone, beats the hell out of a lot of more mainstream titles. It's the price of a burrito, but a burrito will not make you feel so very many things. Well. Hopefully not, at least.
Let's get one thing out of the way, The Wayhaven Chronicles is a YA urban fantasy romance novel. If that sounds like a nice thing to you, go on, if it doesn't, I don't know what to tell you. This might not be the right game for you. If you expect a crime-solving mystery novel because the MC is a detective, this game also won't make you happy (check out A Study in Steampunk instead, you won't be disappointed). More than anything this is a romance novel, you can skip the romance, but it will take away a lot from the overall experience and I doubt the author intended it to be read that way. It almost felt more like an action vampire romance sim than what I'd usually associate with COG / Hosted Games. I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere that the author initially intended to turn her story into 'normal' novels rather than interactive fiction and you can definitely tell, but that's a good thin
Feared when I saw “book one” it would leave me with only half a story. Happy to say it did not and I very much look forward to the next book.
The game isn't as flexible with your choices as other games because ultimately it has a story to tell. While some may find this a negative if you're more inclined to play those REALLY open CYOA titles, this was actually a big positive for the game. What you end up with is what I'd argue is the game most closely resembling an interactive novel than I've played from Choice of Games. There are plenty of choices for dialogue and action though. But what I mean by that is the author's writing/syntax is absolutely enthralling. The main characters are vivid and distinct. I started the game and I couldn't put it down until I finished it, which as far as text adventures go isn't all that common as I normally can find a decent amount of break points. The one thing I'll warn about, at least from my gameplay, is that the detective aspect isn't all that prominent. If you are imagining a detective n
The concept is interesting, and some of the characters are decently likable, but I'm not at all exaggerating or actively trying to be mean when I say this series reads like it was written by a teenager. To give you an idea of what I'm talking about: - The writer constantly book-ends dialogue with a wink, smile, shrug, chuckle, sigh, etc. The constant winking in particular gets really grating over time. - If you took a shot every time they referenced a character "arching a brow" you would fully die before reaching the end of the game. What's wrong with these people's faces? Are they just trying to get in a good eyebrow workout? Are they training to compete in some kind of eyebrow-based Olympic sport? - Awkward dialogue includes unironic use of the words "jeez" and "crap" by grown adults. - The ROs all have 1-2 personality traits, and they seem to only exist to embody specific archetyp
Book Two is out and it's pretty good. Just an FYI for those who don't like having to read through a Part 1 just to be disappointed by the Part 2.
