Simple. What's your favorite storygame? I'm a 3J fan when it comes to storygames, mine is a tie between The Tower and Star Wars: A New Galaxy. I also thoroughly enjouyed 8 Goals 28 rolls.

At the moment my favourite storygame is Death Song (and Necromancer). I haven't played very many storygames in the past couple of years though so I might be missing something.

Really? I mean, thank you so much but those are definitely not two of the best storygames on the site. I definitely think OMS is better than those two, for sure.

My favorites are Mommy, and Ground Zero.

Hahaha, it's more of the nostalgia. The Tower was one of the first games I played, and it was really well written. SW:NG was just a lot of fun to play. Mommy was third for me, it's such a damn good game lol. Most newbs always play that one and are like wow I love that game!

Ground Zero closely followed by OMS. Necromancer is only third by an incredibly short margin.

My absolute favorite (and I played this SEVERAL times, even though it doesn't have many endings) is Snow. First I played, and will always be my favorite. ALWAYS!!!

Man, the first time I played Snow I was baffled. It so different from almost every other CYS game, except for the one by Corinthian, I forget the name. There are a few hidden gems here, and those two stories most definitely qualify.

Snow depresses me every single time I play it.

Yeah, it's not so happy. Try to look for the beauty in the sadness though, that is what makes the story so beautiful.

I was on the verge of tears the first time I read it. I wish to write something so impowering some time!

It was decent. Great writing though, I'm just not a huge fan of romances.

Favorite

Ha, almost all of my stories are romance! Well, at least a subtle dose of romance.

I try to write depending on how well written the story is, endings might have a part, but only if I am annoyed. People definately get brownie points from me if I enjoy it though :). Romances don't neccesarily seem bad to me, I just don't typically enjoy them.

Too much kissy-kissy ga-ga?

The only genres I exceed in writing are Romance and Horror! (technically, adventure and fantasy is just a general genre, so i write in those too)

I believe you would write a good "Bonnie and Clyde"-esque game.

Oh yeah, I'm awesome at death scenes as well. When I was younger, I often pictured dramatic death scenes in my head. I had an odd childhood.
