Choose Your Own Adventure Springboard
- By Phillip on 12-25-19
Guided Imagination / Daydreaming
Reviewed: 12-20-19
This audiobook isn't a story in itself, it's a collection of different suggested scenarios for you to come up with your own story. Starting with a high level premise, it provides a number of prompts from choosing who you are, to who your nemisis is, what you are doing and twists along the way - whether it be searching for treasure in the desert or piloting a spaceship. Whether the adventures you have are grand or disappointing is all up to you.
As someone who has pretty poor imagination and generally can't come up with my own stories, I found this book useful to guide me along the way - however it is really 1 distinct game (imagining) with 10 scenarios as opposed to 10 different games altogether. It would probably be really useful for creative writers as well to help with prompting.
The narrator suits the book well with a highly expressive and grand persona.
