Description

With the power to freeze time, you can ransack a casino, rescue a celebrity, or cheat death itself! "A Wise Use of Time" is a thrilling 260,000-word interactive sci-fi novel by Jim Dattilo, author of "Zombie Exodus," winner of the 2011 XYZZY "Special Recognition" award for interactive fiction. Your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based--without graphics or sound effects--and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination. When you freeze time, no one can see you, hear you, or stop you, except, perhaps, a handful of mysterious time controllers like yourself. Every second you steal puts more stress on your body and mind. Will you bring justice to the mobsters who run rampant in your city? Will you steal from them to provide for those in need? Will you share your power with friends and family? Will you destroy your own powers, or will your powers destroy you first? • Play as male or female; gay, straight, or bisexual. • Develop relationships with one of four main romantic options (or a secret one). Track your relationships and moral stats as they change. • Level up your time-control powers, or nullify them to protect yourself and others.

    I frankly love this Choice of Game. It has everything I want and it delivers surprisingly well. I can’t quite describe why but it’s left me with a need for more of this character you play as.

    I read this book and was so sad to see the end. It had me hooked and it's something that really kept me reading. My conclusion on this is it is a great book I would recommend to everyone.

  • Ending feels rushed, but ample gameplay

    This game is fun. Hands down. It's one of the longer choice games, but the story is more streamlined than some of the other games. The ending feels rushed and you can't really invest your time into decisions you would prefer, but it is still good and a game that is worth your time.
  • Amazing

    The best choice of games, fame by far. Great story, and I feel your choices really influence the game. The story and characters are great.

    This was an amazing game don't get me wrong. And if it weren't for one thing that really frustrates me it'd have all five stars! But for the life of me I can't figure out how to wind up with Raj. I can get him to kiss me but it never went past that. Either he'd say I'm a bad influence on him because I tried to make him like me and it backfired in the end, or he wouldn't be interested at all in me because I wasn't enabling his gambling when I'd try to be a better influence. So either way Raj would turn me down in the end after I spent hours trying to wind up with his character. And I CAN'T figure it out! When I say I spent hours I'm not kidding at all, I spent HOURS trying to get his ending. It's beyond irritating. Maybe I'm just stupid that I missed something I don't know, but my annoyance over this is what makes me take away a star.
  • Worth It.

    I'm a big fan of Choice of Games, even though the writing of some are not exceptionally deep, and more about choices than story. This, however, was incredibly well written, deep, and felt like the perfect mix of story and options. Highly recommend giving it a try!
