Wow, this time last year the only genres in Choices were romance, fantasy, mystery and horror. Now there's going to be over a dozen of them! Since the series has expanded so much I have a few ideas that could be implemented in the future:

1. Earning diamonds for making the right choices: Chapters: Interactive Stories already does this but one or two extra diamonds per chapter versus 4 or 5 diamond choices in a ten minute long chapter and each diamond choice being up to 30 diamonds seems a bit unbalanced. There are plenty of scenarios where a question is asked or a guess is made (i.e. where the villain of Veil of Secrets is hiding in chapter 15) so getting the right answer should reward the player instead of doing essentially nothing.

2: Earning/losing keys: Certain choices should reward the player with a key to go on to the next chapter if a certain requirement is fulfilled (especially if it's a diamond choice) or there should be some other way to get keys. To make the game more interesting, if there was some other way of getting keys without waiting for hours or spending real life money there should also be a game over/continue system. In this case getting a game over of some kind (such as dying or failing a critical objective) would result in the player either having to use a key to continue or start back at the beginning of the chapter (or even the entire book, though this would be extremely rare).

3: Age rating and content filter: Since Choices currently has a PEGI 12 rating and more mature content is being added lately (hence the content warnings) there should be a system where the player can decide how mature the content is. This could change several things, such as whether strong(er) language is used, if a disturbing image is shown or just described and how steamy the scenes with love interests are. If this system was put in place there would also be a warning stating that certain books are not suitable for people under a certain age (or if they don't want to hear strong language or see scenes with mature content for whatever reason) unless the content filter is on.
