Very cool and interesting....love the level of interactivity for it just bring a text based game. Also cool all the choices you can get to form the character that suits you best. Highly repayable and when an authors writing has you so immersed in the story to the point where your seeing what your reading going on like a movie in your mind, that's when you know for sure you have found an excellent author. I gladly paid for both parts of Wayhaven Chronicles. Would recommend to anyone. Well done.

It's hard to make a text-based game interesting but you certainly did it fabulously. My only problem is the rest of it being $5, I dont like spending money on games so it was kinda disappointing. However, if there ever was I game I would spend money on, it would be this. Edit: Okay so I have not stopped thinking about game for nearly a year. Edit 2: I bought it awhile ago and it is one of my favorite text-based games. Worth the price.

I really enjoyed the game and the story was very engaging. Many of the choices you make may seem subtle but they build up to impact the story in new ways. I played through the game twice and it has a lot of replayability. My one negative is the controls. Sometimes when scrolling through the different choices I would tap a choice and it would use that choice, even though I didn't hit the button at the bottom. This made me select some choices unintentionally, luckily no major choices.

I really enjoyed playing it! I already played the story twice and will likely to replay it again! I took two months break before reading it again, so I won't really remember the outcome. It was worth the money. Every new storyline I like to change the character for example to a heartwarming one or a cold one. The dialogs do change often and you get to choose between many options on how to behave! I really enjoyed it as already said. Thank for making such a great game! 💜

It had been years I hadn't been able to "live" a story, to find it captivating enough to hold my attention (AttentionDeficitDisorder) for more than a few minutes, and I found myself putting aside all responsibilities to binge-read and live this exhilarating experience in only 2 days. I am more than looking forward playing it all over again to experience all the routes and different outcomes. I've also greatly enjoyed discovering a rich vocabulary. Recommended it to several friends. Best App :)

It's really one of the most amazing games I've played in awhile. The characters are the best, the callbacks are amazing. Nothing seems forced and the comdey is well done (*cough* pepper spray choice *cough*). Feels like im watching a movie. The only complaint is that you can't restart a chapte in case you make a mistake or accidentally chose the wrong choice. You start all over, which can be frustrating. Other than that, game is top notch like the sequel. Definetely give it a go.

Deeply enjoyable read, within an interesting universe. Characters all have distinct and memorable personalities. Plenty of choices to define exactly what kind of character you want the MC to be. My only complaint would be the inability to save your progress, or reverse a choice. Desperately needs this for those who like to explore different paths without restarting from scratch each time.

I've played a larger variety of choice games and this one is by far the best. Captivating story with unique characters and engaging story. I found myself making choices based off my characters personality and not for the sake of building stats, which I often find myself doing. I highly recommend Wayhaven to anyone interested in a well written adventure of mystery and intrigue.

I absolutely loved it! The story is well written and the characters are all well made, I just can't help but love them all! I have played through the app so many times to go throigh all the routes and I've even managed to change my ending at least one or twice. I was so invested in it that I manged to finish it over night without realizing it, I can't wait for book two! Im super excited!

Totally inlove with this game!! It's amazing to be a part of the story and have influence over the plot. The only improvements i can think of is for the navigation which is misbehaving a bit when you try to scroll past a plot choice with many options. Oh and a sweet addition would be a sound toggle option. Ambience music could really pull you in even deeper into the story :3 (hearing the sound of rain when it's raining etc) In any case, I'll most certainly replay this more than once. <3

Absolutely the most brilliant choose-your-own-adventure story I've read yet. All of the characters are distinct and interesting, and the plot is, while fairly simple, is executed in a way that had me reading for notes after i should've gone to bed. More than any other game/story of its like, this book really embraces the element of choice, with an abundance of player options in both actions and dialogue, and it has officially won a place---in my mind, at least---as the best of its kind to date.

This game is very simple to understand and the story is really interesting! Basically, at the end of most pages, you get a multiple choice option to customize your character and potentially the story (I'm not sure how many different paths the story has, having only played it once). You can see your characters personality traits in a side page. A lot of the choices didn't really seem to alert the percentages though.

The game is amazing. The story is rich with lore, the characters are all interesting to interact with, and you are given an abundance of options to choose to accurately respond to any situations. It is just that good of a game but the only caveat I have over the game is that there is no save function or back button. If you accidentally misclick or don't save at the end of the game you have to do it all over again which is not fun. Otherwise, quite a perfect game, highly recommend anyone to play.

Just finished my first time through the book and I loved it! Well-written and LOTS of options. It deserves a sixth star. 🌟 I paid for no ads and it's worth the price. The writing is better than some ordinary books that are 2 or 3 times the price. Between that, the replay value, and being able to dictate some of the story it's worth more than the $5 I paid. Anyone complaining about the price is way too acclimated to "free" games that nickel and dime users over time. I'm happy to pay up front to enjoy a game in its entirety without ads or microtransactions.

All I can say is... WOW! Been a while since I downloaded a choice-based story, but this one is well worth it! Suggest reading the synopsis before downloading though - most of the poor reviews come from readers who aren't enthusiasts of this particular genre and fail to recognise it! It's a great story with extremely interesting characters and numerous choices to make compared to most choose your own games/stories... Fantastic and can't wait for the next book!

The story was AMAZING. I loved the characters. It was an awesome game, a lot of choices that will define your character the way you want it. I hope you can put an undo button or anything to reverse your choices, rather than restarting your progress. Still, I loved the app, the story got me attached (T^T)

Not my favorite, but still not bad! I appreciate the amount of choices you have regarding the MC and their personality. You can choose different emotional reactions to events - not just physical ones - which I really like as it helps develope your character. Some of the dramatic irony can be irritating. It gets frustrating when you know something the MC doesn't, and while perhaps that added to the experience for others; it didn't me. I would have preferred to learn things at the same rate.

Love this series! I love that you can choose different love interests (or no love interest) and that you can choose the main characters appearance, sexuality, gender and personality traits throughout the game. The story is well-written and the plot isn't overly predictable which is refreshing. My only suggestion is to add the function of being able to flip pages. The first time I read the book, I accidentally tapped the screen and lost a whole page I hadn't read yet and couldn't go back :(

Good storytelling, I giggled maniacally at a lot of the choices. But the vampire aspect is...well... y'all are calling them vampires, but they're altogether a different entity than that. Still good though. But I wish we could restart a chapter, not the entire story, especially since it will randomly say I picked a choice when I was trying to scroll to the end.
