Each selection simply pushes the narrative along in a slightly different way. There aren’t any ‘wrong’ answers among the user’s choices. It’s a fun experience, but it may only be engaging for bookworms: The user’s character, the servant of a self-indulgent socialite, can act anywhere on a scale of mild-mannered to utter scoundrel. Tally Ho is a comedy text adventure set in the Roaring Twenties. I know that’s not what fans of Mass Effect 3 want to hear. It’s like in life though: it’s about the journey rather than the destination.
But although the user can take different routes through the story, the same endpoint will be reached (at least in the opening chapters). This is also boosted through the presence of achievements, awarded for directing the narrative in interesting ways. User actions can range from diligent to downright negligent, and the different pathways enhance the app’s replay value. The user can determine how the tale plays out within certain limits. At the start, the protagonist’s employer, Rory Wintermint, has landed in a bit of gambling debt and, fearing a visit from violent thugs, plans to charm Aunt Primrose into providing a bailout.
