It's a good story, but it's not that exciting, since you aren't really doing anything and more of like a side character in my opinion. Though besides that, there are some bugs, such as i (some words)/i appearing, but that isn't important, the thing that really made me mad though was the ads, since they pop out of no where, but the problem for me was it lags my phone, because it takes me to google, then youtube, then the game, which takes a while to get back, though it's kind of my fault.l

With a suspenseful plot, interesting characters, a phenomenal soundtrack and very interactive gameplay along with so many possible endings, the game itself has got the whole package. However, what gives this 3 stars is the TICKET SYSTEM! 40 tickets last very little time, causing more than half of your game time to be watching ads. It feels like it's Pay to PLAY. I recommend having tickets regenerate over time, or at least give more tickets per ad. Otherwise, pretty cool game!

The story is good, but the app itself is horrible. You can watch ads to get more tickets, but the "wait" timer quickly jumps up to 5 min to view again. The game also burns through tickets at a high speed, and you can't pay to turn it off. You just have to keep paying for more tickets. This has an impact on the gameplay itself. With some options costing more tickets than others. You even have to pay tickets to view your in game "score". Incredibly dissaponting.
