Decent books/game, though far from perfect. Loses a star though for constantly pestering to watch ads despite telling it not to and another for auto playing one, bad enough when I told it not to ask and when I say no when it does and so it didn't even bother asking, worse considering reading is a quiet activity, so it's especially annoying and potentially problematic to suddenly have an ad loudly playing. Frankly, giving 2 stars after that is generous.

Reading through the new update, I was glad to see that the ability to start at your last checkpoint at any time was added, similar to the stand alone volumes. I go in app and much to my surprise, I find that the feature costs coins. This is unacceptable to me. If you want to use coins for going back a choice, that's fine. But the ability to restart at your last checkpoint should be free and standard. This is very disappointing , as I had been a big fan and supporter of the rest of your apps and publications

I have just uploaded another update (1.21) which does not cost a coin for loading checkpoints. I was hoping that the cost of a coin would add an interesting resource management dimension to the game, but I can understand how this could be seen as a step backward even with a sizable allowance of coins given up front. Sorry for any inconvenience.

I am rather disappointed. This is a decent series of books in the old choose your own adventure style, but the save game is wonky. When you reset/replace your phone, it loses a significant portion of your progress when you "save," including both chapters you've completed and ones you've opened but not played. Found out today that if you don't play for a while, it loses your progress even without uninstalling. Chapter rankings disappear and you have to buy them (game currency) all over again.
