It looks like we’re in the midst of yet another App Store SNAFU as recently reported both on our forums and on Reddit. It seems that for whatever reason, Apple has purged people’s App Store wish lists. It seems like this has to have been some kind of mistake, as it seems real crazy to wipe wish lists going into the holiday season, but we are talking about the App Store here, where few things ever make sense. If you’ve been using the App Store wish list functionality, you might want to give it a look and see if yours is also empty.
If you still remember what was on your wish list, I recommend either rebuilding it on AppShopper or inside the TouchArcade app (Free). Arguably, the functionality on our end as opposed to using Apple’s solution is even better. First off, we don’t randomly wipe your wish lists, but more importantly you’ll also get alerts when things go on sale.
No word from Apple on whether or not wish lists will be restored, but in the meantime, it’s probably safe to just pour one out for your lost list of games.
Bold initiative. Gonna give it a try.
I love interactive fiction.
Seems good. Interactive fiction can do more than a normal book.
I like moti on the watch. It's faster on the phone but breaking away to interact with moti is a nice touch. I feel like the story had an abrupt start so I'm curious how the rest will go.
Do we know what day it updates on? I'd like to be able to log in that day rather than constantly checking for updates
Friday, it seems.
Thank you!
I went with the 6 month subscription because while it's certainly the least value per content, I liked the beginning enough to want to play each new part as soon as possible. I do wish there was a little bit more per update, or that updates were twice a week, but oh well.
This was intriguing me, I was actually hoping for a Shaun's review to see what it was all about. Seems good enough, will give it a try!
Thanks for the review! Interactive fiction can be pricey, (and can be bad even at $6.99!) so I want to make sure I get good value before I invest. $2.99 isn't much, but that's a low average price, and there are so many IFs!
"Choices: And The Sun Went Out" (which is also the name of the whole app, which has another story running, and more to come in 2017) finished its 15-arc story on Christmas Day. So people can finally read the whole thing now!
In the end, there were over 2400 sections, and over 600,000 words. Each read-through is around 150,000 words.
It was a seriously epic journey for everyone involved... including the players.
