Love this app !!!
I absolutely LOVE Episode! 💕📱 I’ve been playing for years, and it’s honestly one of my favorite apps. I love getting lost in different stories, choosing my own outfits, making decisions, and seeing how my choices change what happens. 😭😂💗 There’s literally a story for every mood—romance, drama, comedy, mystery, everything! Episode is definitely my little escape when I just want to relax and enjoy a good story. 10/10, I’ll forever be an Episode girlie! 🎀✨
ANNOYING
would be a brilliant game if you didn’t have to have gems for everything!
love episodes! you won’t be disappointed.
i’ve had episodes for a few years now and i’m always reading something new or re-reading a story because it’s that good. the authors that create their stories pour their time into making it unique. and it’s even better now that i’m able to find older stories i’ve lost and couldn’t find because of the name.
Money hungry
Amazing game love the story’s but almost all story’s require gems, almost every interaction is also with gems, and you need to even complete gems needed story’s to see the full catalog which ofc you can unlock early with gems…
Better Options
This game LOOKS fun, and, at first it is… until you get deeper into the game and get options to do things that sound really cool. Like, the only options that you can really do that are free are the worst options that make you do bad decisions. I would LOVE it if there was a one time fee to pay to get every option for free, or at least make it easier and cheaper to get diamonds and if you REALLY don’t want to pay, make at least a couple more options that are decent. Other than that it’s a great game, but, prob won’t return till some changes are made
So good!
This is my first time so I haven’t really played a lot but Omg I am OBSESSED with the Don’t hate the player it’s soo good! But you get only two chapters every 3 hours less if you watch adds which I do I wish we would have a way to get free tickets like playing a game you know that’s my only problem!
Awful
Awful company, asking for tonnes of money every other choice
Options
This game is amazing. If you love drama, this is the game for you. The only thing thats annoying is when you have to choose an option; Stylish Bedroom or Plain Boring Bedroom, the stylish one costs 29 gems. And when you start the game, there’s no starter gem pack, you have to buy it with actual money, so you have to read through 29 chapters just to choose a stylish bathroom? If you are gonna use gems to have people pay for options, at least make them cheaper, or have a gem starter pack. Please and thank you. 😁
Amei
Me sinto super sexy nesse app!
😳😳
It’s a good game it’s really entertaining especially like yt videos of people playing it but it’s ridiculous how all the good options are gems, and it’s one of the reasons I took a 5 year break from this game so maybe if gems could be a bit cheaper
Yay yay
Love this game and there community stories.
Ads.
3 ads to watch per episode?? It’s too much 1 is enough not everyone has money to pay a month to play the game without ads i used to play this back in 2016 it’s not the same anymore i redownloaded for nostalgia but with all these ads it’s definitely ruining the experience,I’ll be deleting it once again.
very good game
this game is a very great game very interesting very dramatic very fun. But I don’t like that. I always have to do these surveys or have to download games to earn gems so I can do what I want. I think this game would be better if we didn’t have to do a bunch of surveys to do what we want, but other than that, the game is very interesting and I’m very involved in. I really like it.
Diamond???!!!
You have to pay to make decent decisions and the diamonds you can rarely get for free!
Help
It won’t let me play the game it just says connection error
So fun and romantic 😍😍
I am reading a story called “no innocence” such a vibe and good story🤍🤍🤍🤍
Horrible!,
I paid atleast $10 for diamonds on this game! After I signed in and made an account I lost ALL of my progress!! That is extremely ridiculous!! I just bought and made a good progress throughout my stories just for all of that to be gone!! This is RIDICULOUS AND SCAMMING.
Idea
So I had an idea for spin offs and sorts. I feel like we should be allowed to customize more characters like best friends, etc and get to name them. Especially in spin offs and such. Or for instance: parents. I’ve recently been reading The Prince’s Bride but I read Protect the Princess first. I feel that when there is a spin off you should allow the reader to name the characters from the original story in the spin off because I am forced with the name Olivia when I had her named something else in The Princess Bride. I also think it would be a better game if we get to design our best friends and name them. Thank you!
its alright
too many ads and it’s pissing me off
Great game, the gem thing sucks tho.
I like episode, it’s really fun and the stories, but it just sucks that without gems I can’t do anything. It makes me crash out tens times a day, and rage quit because of the gem thing but it’s still a good game. I would rather have to watch ten adds to unlock one good answer while playing than pick a bad answer bc I don’t have any gems.
Heaven for a teenage girl
The best game ever . Great stories too !! Very creative my top 2 are Prince of Malibu and symphony .
Avec tout le respect que je vous dois
Mais il faut diminuer les choses payantes
Good game
The game is soo tuff but every BEST options are wants diamond and money
S
Sorry for the review but the diamonds ruined everything and i hate that u have to pay
the gems
okay so the actual game is really good and kind of addictive but like the gems are kinda hard to get like you get to earn one at the end of each episode (if the story has a blue line around it) but a lot of the interactions that cost gems are like 29 gems or more and if you buy gems theyre expensive so i kinda get that maybe the like creators need money but they should make it so that the gems are cheaper and it costs less for interactions and that there’s a free option that’s maybe not as good as the gem option but still better than being really cold like the only other option 😭😭. ALSO the timer, episode ticket things, they are really annoying but i mean kinda nesicary cuz other wise id get sucked into that game for hours
ok so boom
This is the best game ever and I love it sm u should get it because it’s so fun and addicting 🤰😳🌝🫰🏼✌🏻🥹👀🌚😈🤸🏻
Never get this game
I do like it but it’s telling u to do this but u have to use jems and it is very hard to get jems so I will now delete it because it is not a good game and lots of bugs,not very good,and half of the items cost 10 jems and over see I only have three and the stupid,idiot ai bots keep saying blah blah blah about my outfit my look my hair it just never ends Saturday 22nd August at 23:13
Good but kind of annoying
It’s fun but having to have tickets and gems to get a good story line is annoying.
Too expensive
I love the app but for every story you need diamonds and if you don’t have diamonds you can make the choices you want or if not the outfits you want their can’t be a middle were you don’t pick the best outfit but at least you get a decent one not the most ugly clothing you have ever seen not everyone can afford it
👌
This game is good because I love the romance ❤️🔥 but you need to pay for more gems to say yes to things and it’s really annoying so please sought that out then it would be a lot better
why I love episode!
me personally I really don’t like reading books , but when I seen episode it seemed to make me like books more and I just want more books now.
Too greedy
Game is entertaining but why is it continuously trying to force you to buy diamonds to make decisions through out the whole game. It defeats the purpose of the game, at least let us watch ads like what the heck! will be uninstalling.
Great game
Amazing game, although it is very challenging to get gems. Gems are kind of overused on the game and are needed for higher level plot development. Would be the perfect game if it was easier to obtain gems.
Good but could be better
The stories are usually very good and super fun, but you have to pay so much money for gems, and if you choose not to, it always sabotages your story pretty badly. So I wish either gems were cheaper or had less of an impact on the story.
Ok
So in the games there are gems to use but normally it’s like 29💎but apart from that the game rules
!!!
Love the romance stories 😊😊😊 !!! I played this when I was younger I still live for this game 😹🥰 !!
Ewww
Gay
Episode
I absolutely love all these, it keeps me entertained and looking forward to read the next one, one thing I will say is that all the cute outfits you have to spend a lot of diamonds on which I understand but I feel like we need more options without the diamonds overall I love it I’ve tried others but there not as good at episode
good but.
you should have to give up diamonds everything something gets juicy
Good...but
I've loved this app since the Demi Lovato and Mean girls days. It's a shame to see how greedy they've gotten with the gems. It's a lot easier to get them now but still not enough. Get this app if you're patient enough to wait 24 hours for a "Gumball Machine", or to join a book club which gives you 50 gems across 4 days (if the club reaches the goal) or watching 14 ads a day for "Shards" 😭😭😭 Good luck, but there are some genuinely good stories in the community.👍
Good game but there’s a but
I love this game but I would love to see more clothes, hairstyles, shoes and if these cas items can be like the trending ones it make the game better and ways we can get gems without being in a treasure chest
So expensive
I don't like this cause it ALWAYS makes you buy diamonds so it doesn't get hot so no thanks!
peak and stuff
why is this game kinda a crash grab?? the good options are always like 300 diamonds 🥹✌️
Ok
Overall, the game is ok. You get to choose your fate and the episodes are all very fun, but there is a problem: you have to use gems to have anything good happen to you, and it’s always a ridiculous amount. I have no idea how to even get them, so my only other option is to pay, and it is an absurd amount of money. I downloaded the game because it seemed fun, but it’s not fun enough to pay. Also, they make you create outfits and makeup, and then tell you that you must pay to keep it. Please fix this.
Good
Love the game but I don’t like the whole gem thing
game ofc
love this game bad asf its very fun
Money hungry childhood game turnt to trash.
The amount of stupid gem choices for every decision that basically ruins the game is the cause of the downfall of episode.What is the point of letting such a sloppy,pay to enjoy,trashy plot game.The the only thing I can do to get gems is do a quiz and sell my data.I can’t even enjoy the plot if any good decision costs like 30 gems to do.The stories are sloppy most the time with the same repetitive slop.I have to watch an ad to just even read one chapter then I can’t even pick any good choice or I have to fess up £2.Then I can only read three chapters not being able to pick any good choice for the plot.I hope the company learns from this because the game is dying and rn for a good reason.
cool
very fun and intertaining
too many premium options
absolutely infuriating how you can’t do anything positive in the stories without needing to spend gems/real life money. makes the game not worth playing because i can’t afford any “good” choices.
Kinda disappointed:/
This was such a good app until the update where I have to wait hours sometimes days to read the next chapter(or oay gems if I don’t wanna wait) and it’s not even like the next chapter isn’t out yet. I have to wait 11 days to read the next chapter, and this was right after I just spent 8 gems for one that said it would be released in 4 days. But if I don’t wait for those 11 days, I have to pay 10… really, Episode???? It just makes me not want to use this app at all, it kinda sucks, honestly.
