"I'm a senior at a small Southern college and I never thought this would happen to me." Thus should begin Strange Loves: Vampire Boyfriends, the new interactive romance novel by Tin Man Games. This so-called send-up of the supernatural romance genre uses the choose-your-own-adventure model to confuse its audience and offer up an abundance of cliches, cheesy storylines and schlocky endings.
It's amazing the kinds of doors that the mobile and tablet markets have opened for gaming, perfect example being the influx of Choose Your Own Adventure-esque games we've seen in recent years. While the concept would have worked okay on a console or PC, it's on a touch screen interface that they truly shine. Case in point, Tin Man Games' Gamebook Adventures series. Having found success with the previous nine entries, the studio is looking to ascend to the double digits with Strange Loves: Vampire Boyfriends.
