Choice of Life: Middle Ages is a dark, funny, and brilliantly minimalist card-based RPG. If you enjoyed games like 'Reigns', this is an absolute must-play. You navigate your life from a peasant to (potentially) a king by swiping cards left or right to make choices. The consequences are often absurd and frequently lethal, which is part of the game's undeniable charm.
The writing is the real star here. It manages to balance historical grimness with a modern sense of irony. Every choice feels like a gamble—will eating this mysterious mushroom lead to a vision or just an early grave? The hand-drawn art style is expressive and perfectly complements the quirky tone. It’s a short but highly replayable experience that rewards experimentation and a good sense of humor.
Hilarious and dark narrative paths
Unique hand-drawn illustrations
Over 1,000 different event cards
Dozens of unique endings to discover
Don't be afraid to die! Each 'ending' provides clues on how to survive that specific scenario in your next life. Pay attention to the icons at the top of the screen to track your resources.
Choices made in the 'Childhood' phase of the game will unlock unique options in the 'Adulthood' phase. Being brave as a kid might make you a better knight later.
No, it features a non-linear storyline with vast branching paths and secret scenarios based on your decisions.
Wonderful text adventure game
Believe it not, it is a fun game with good learning points
I’ll be asking for my $0.29 back.
