Practice Random Acts of Disdainfulness

Not this sort of text-based game.

Upstart start-up Choice of Games offers up a fine debut effort with the text-based (but tasty) Choice of the Dragon. Versions are available for the iPhone and Android, or you can play in your Javascript-enabled browser for free. The game owes some of its narrative structure to the old choose-your-own-adventure paperbacks, but adds some CRPG flexibility — mostly behind the scenes, so you need never worry about the mechanics.

In my opinion, more RPGs should track “disdain” as a stat. I certainly found this one worthy of repeated playthroughs. Via io9 by way of Gizmodo.

  1. Ваш сайт в опере не очень то корректо показывается, а так все отлично! спасибки вам за умные мысли!

  2. I’m sorry you had problems viewing the site in Opera. I will try to download a copy of Opera and do some testing. Perhaps I can find a theme that works better. Thank you for the feedback.

  3. I’m looking at the site right now with Opera 10.10 build 1893 on WinXP SP3. I can’t find anything that doesn’t work. Can you be more specific about what didn’t appear correctly?
