I first found Choices when The Freshman, Book 2 was going on. I was looking for any story type games with romance elements and Choices seemed to be the only one around with any quality. The Freshman was my first touch and it got me hooked really fast. At first I was worried since we the main character was locked into female, fearing that there would be no female love interests like in so many other games out there, but I found myself happily wrong as Kaitlyn stole my heart. Ever since Choices has only kept growing better and better with more inclusivity and a growing joined universe between the stories, making me a very happy fan of Pixelberry with two years under my belt.

My favorite series in order

 * Endless Summer
 * Red Carpet Diaries
 * High School Story
 * Perfect Match
 * America's Most Eligible
 * The Elementalists
 * The Freshman
 * The Royal Romance
 * Bloodbound

The Freshman holds a special place in my heart as the first series I played, but as it keeps going, it has grown stale for me with the constant drama. Endless Summer also holds a special place in my heart as an instant favorite when it came out, as I have a weakness for the premise of a group stuck on a mysterious island and it didn't overstay its welcome. Red Carpet Diaries I had expected to hate, but was happily surprised and when Victoria ended up being a Love Interest, it came to stay.

High School Story and Perfect Match have gotten me mostly with lovely Love Interests and in Perfect Match's case, the fun little test at the beginning. I'm also personally happy to see High School Story switching to a new character so it feels fresh again while keeping old faces around. America's Most Eligible has a possibility of falling depending on how it ends, while The Elementalists has instantly grown on me with just the first two chapters and has high potential to end up higher on the list.

The Royal Romance and Bloodbound I enjoyed for the story, but for me they suffered from not really having any Love Interests that I was honestly interested in. Since I play these games for the romance more than anything, that severely affected my enjoyment for both of them, but I was still invested and am eagerly awaiting what comes next. I guess my biggest gripe with both of them is, however, the fact that in both series there's one character I would love to date, but in neither case is said character a Love Interest...

Series I've dropped

 * Rules of Engagement
 * Home for the Holidays
 * Most Wanted
 * LoveHacks
 * The Crown & The Flame
 * Across the Void
 * Big Sky Country

I am really not a fan of series where the story switches between playable characters, as I think is obvious from this list... I like to play as a self-insert and I don't like to be taken away from it. And because I like to play as a self-insert, I also don't like it when the characters are made ready for me. However, I'm still planning to finish the crowd favorite classics Most Wanted and The Crown & The Flame at some point. Not sure on the others. While Big Sky Country and Home for the Holidays don't suffer from the same issues as the rest of the books on this list, they just didn't have Love Interests that interested me or stories that kept me invested.

My favorite Love Interests in order

 * Victoria Fontaine
 * Maria Flores
 * Skye Crandall
 * Ava Cunningham
 * Quinn Kelly
 * Estela Montoya
 * Shreya Mistry
 * Eva
 * Hayden Young (Joker)
 * Kaitlyn Liao
 * Aster

Despite always holding a special place in my heart as the one who hooked me into Choices and still being an awesome character, Kaitlyn has grown stale along with the ongoing drama within The Freshman games. Victoria and Maria on the other hand have stayed as some of my favorites so far from the moment they were introduced. Skye, Shreya and Aster are fairly new as of writing this, but are already showing great promise for me. With Hayden, I came for the customizable personality and stayed for the self-searching.

When it comes to Endless Summer, I loved both Quinn and Estela throughout the games and when the time came for handfasting, I stopped playing for some weeks to ponder over my choice, until I decided to go through with it with Quinn. Other two who truly stole my heart were Ava and Eva, despite their games themselves not belonging to my favorites, as I kept playing mainly for them.
