    I get your point, but some people do really just want to relax with a choose your own adventure book with some cool art and catchy music, no need to act surprised when people have different tastes than yours!

      Yep, it’s my mistake. I assumed it would have some gameplay elements as suggested by the “action” in the title, or control of the direction of narrative, something along what interactive stories used to be in my mind.

      As I said, I personally don’t understand the appeal of it. I’d rather read the story as a book or even a graphic novel because for me tapping the spacebar and dragging icons does not add anything. It’s plain annoying both as game and distracting as a reading experience.

      Oh, and obviously I didn’t expect it to be about horny tech furries. It was simply not for me.
