Highway Wars for Android
The game lumps piles of stat changes into single unclear decisions, especially in the character development. Having to roll the dice on what build my character is by choosing a nickname like "the Fox" or "Scarface". Like many choice games it gets political though not as bad as most of the official games. Story quality is decent but spending my time on decisions for the purpose of trying to figure out how the author is trying to butcher your stats and not on the weight of a decision is a real headache.
I've played many of the COG/Hosted Games and usually buy them immediately after playing the demo. This one, however, just didn't interest me enough for me to purchase. The story is pretty boring, just driving and making arbitrary decisions about which road you should take. The companions are all pretty dull and there didn't seem to be much thought put into your interactions with them. Maybe I'll come back and buy this later, to give it a fair shot, but so far I'm really not interested
I really enjoyed this game. The post apocalyptic setting was engaging and the artwork was stunning and added to the experience. Sometimes these kinds of choose your own stories give you nothing but fake options, but these felt more meaningful. I really liked being able to follow my stats and seeing my decisions reflected in them. If you're a fan of Mad Max or Fallout type themes or choose your own stories, this is a great one to get.
The story, while short, was overall enjoyable. It was a vastly different experience than most other stories published by either hosted or choice games. That said it did have some real drawbacks. The climax was very abrupt. I literally stared at my screen for a good ten seconds wondering if was really the ending. Also there was a point where I was given a choice with only one option. Not because I didn't meet the requirements for other options, but because there were no other options to press. That was disappointing. However I will be playing through again to see the different outcomes and recommend to anyone on the fence to give this game a chance
Played the demo and it was alright I might come back before the sale ends and buy it out of curiosity but I'm not that enthralled with it to instantly buy it. If you like mad max and things like it then this is your book/story.
It jumps around a lot and the pacing seems off. It goes from Mad Max 1 to 2 and then it jumps to New Vegas. Not bad on it's own, it's actually a really cool concept, it just feels too abrupt.
The game seemed like it was going to be great and then just petered out. Like if Choice of Rebels stopped after the first two weeks of winter and said you won.
A rushed game, but with enormous potential. I wouldnt recommend buying it in its current state, but if the writer really tried, he could transform it into a masterpiece.
This game has good world building and an interesting premise but fell kinda flat for me. The characters are pretty underdeveloped including your own (Judy seems to be the best companion) and there's some scripted in stuff that was frustrating and unavoidable. It's great that there's so many endings however it feels like the author focused more on the endings than making the choices leading up to that point interesting. Some stats and choices were unclear and the endings felt pretty abrupt. Had a lot of potential but needed fleshing out and to be less restrictive of how much you can achieve per playthrough as not the most replayable game.
I've played many choice llc games and I can say with out doubt that this isn't one of the strongest. The concept of the games isn't a bad one, the writer really went into depth with the backstory and the setting. The world seems in-depth and really brings you in. Though the game defiantly has it's downfalls, such as the lack of any character building. There is very little dialog in the game that you can really affect. The characters you do meet feel boring and rather uninteresting as a result. The story was too much shorter than I expected it to be, the entire game revolves around one mission. There's not a lot of build up to the climax and as a result the story seems flat and unsatisfying. The game hints to a deeper story and background that probably would of made a far more interesting story than this, and though it hints at this it dose very little to really show anything. In conclusion this game had lots of potential yet feel short, the sale price of 3 dollars seems reasonable for what the game delivers.
The choices are very unclear as to how they will affect stats or outcomes. The game is still fun, but frustrating for no real reason because of this.
Fantastic game and good length. Loved the story and the fact it is so replayable with many different endings depending on the actions you take.
I enjoyed the mad max feel of things. It's good in my books.
it was a good game. it has a few quirks but all in all it is a good read and a fun experience
Expected mad max, what I got was even better instead
Just to short
Just what you can expect from Fallout 4, good premise but the presentation falls flat
Very nice.

I have played almost every Choice of Game and Hosted Game and this is the one I am least satisfied with. As someone else said the stat changes on a lot of the choices make no sense and when I got to the ending on my playthrough it didn't give me a choice, I had ONE option to choose from. Thats not much of a damn choice, I was forced to chose that option because there was LITERALLY no other choice and it gave me a really crappy ending. If I could give no stars, I would.
