Do you want fantasy or space? Do you prefer an adventure or something closer to a shooter? The game takes those choices and uses them to shape what appears on the screen.
This makes the opening feel almost like building your own game before playing it.
Answer Questions and Watch Things Change
The choices are part of the joke.
Choose Your Game plays with familiar ideas from modern games and turns them into a parody. Different answers can affect the genre, setting, and other parts of the adventure.
That means the game is not simply asking questions for decoration. Your decisions are meant to influence what kind of experience you get.
Once the choices are made, you control the hero with the mouse or cursor keys.
Expect the Game to Make Fun of Game Clichés
Choose Your Game does not take its story too seriously.
It uses common game ideas and exaggerates them. Fantasy adventures, space settings, shooters, role-playing ideas, and bosses become part of the joke. The game is built around the idea that players often want to choose everything about the game they are playing.
The result is less predictable than a normal action title with one fixed theme.
Prepare for the Boss
Your choices eventually lead toward a battle with an angry boss. Reaching that point means dealing with whatever strange combination of genre and setting your earlier answers have created.
Choose Your Game works because the selection process is part of the entertainment. You are not simply opening an options menu to change a background. The game turns those preferences into the main idea.
It is a short, unusual experience for players who enjoy parody and games that play around with familiar rules. Answer the questions, create your version of the adventure, move your hero through it, and see whether the game you helped define gives you enough to survive the final fight.
