About this game

PlayNook is the home of interactive audio books: stories you listen to and play as the main character.

An AudioGame is an experience halfway between an audiobook and an interactive fiction game. Professional voice actors narrate the story; you decide what happens next. Choose with a tap or simply speak your choice out loud!

HOW IT WORKS

• Listen: stories with voices, music and sound design
• Choose: at key moments the story stops and asks you to decide. Some choices are timed, some need an item you've found, some change your fate forever
• Roll the dice: some actions need luck. Roll a virtual 20-sided dice (D20). Tap it, or just say "Roll the dice!"

YOU ARE THE HERO

• Stats: earn Story Points with your choices, collect Gold, build skills like strength and charm
• Health: wrong choices can wound you. Lose all your health and it's game over, unless you've reached a checkpoint
• Your Bag: gather items in your Inventory, discover secrets in your Journal, unlock Badges as you play

REPLAY EVERYTHING WITH JOURNEYS (NEW)

Every chapter has up to 5 independent save slots called Journeys. Finish a story, then start a new Journey and take the paths you didn't dare take. Your stats, items and journal carry over from chapter to chapter within each Journey.

MADE FOR EVERY LISTENER

• Full accessibility: VoiceOver support, text-only or audio mode, adjustable text size, auto mode, voice speed control
