Choice of the Star Captain
The hilarious interactive sci-fi novel where you control the main character!
Fight on the front lines of the war between humanity and the hideous Blobs. (Not that anyone has actually seen a Blob up close, but everyone knows they have tentacles. Surely they’re hideous!) Go on stealth missions, run alien blockades, and investigate mysterious planets, "aided" by Lloyd, your insufferably obnoxious shipboard computer. Choice of the Star Captain is the hilarious interactive science-fiction novel where your choices determine how the story proceeds. The game is entirely text-based--without graphics or sound effects--but powered by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.For example, suppose Lloyd has just informed you that your ship will crash land on the jungle moon of Cygnus Delta in 93 seconds. What will you do? A) Call upon your elite piloting skills to escape the moon’s gravity well. B) Invite Lloyd to land the ship himself, if he’s so smart. C) Make the prudent choice, and try landing on the moon’s surface instead of attempting a risky escape. D) Spend the last 93 seconds of your life gleefully smashing Lloyd’s screen with a torque wrench. Humanity needs you, Star Captain! Will you defeat the Blobs and come home as a war hero? Will you uncover the secret that sparked the Blob invasion? Will you serve as ambassador and convince the Blobs to spare the human race? The choice is yours.Bug fixes.

Story was shorter than I'd like and wasn't the best sci-fi story I've gone through. Wouldn't exactly recommend it.
I loved this game, and am looking forward to a sequel.
A great story with a pulp sci-fi feel.
the story was exciting and it was a lot of fun having control over how things went down
The game is too pushy. It basically shoves you into one direction and there aren't many choices.
Story was fine the first time I played like a year ago (especially since this was one of, if not the first CoG gane I played). Now I tried playing again because I had basically forgotten the story. Realize now that the story is so linear I can't even be bothered to finish. I said I wanted to be a smuggler dammit, so why am I being drafted into the army when I clearly failed all my tests? Just kick me out and let me do something more interesting. I understand that there needs to be some story, but I've played more linear games that are more interesting than this. This is especially frustrating seeing as you start off so free, but lose all freedom by the second chapter. You should have just started off going to join the army, that way it screws you over less when you can't do anything else. There are just not enough relevant choices or emotional connection to anything. There are virtually no meaningful relationships other than Lloyd. That said, the writing was decent and the dialogue with Lloyd is funny, if you can get past how god damn frustrating he is (In my case he stopped being funny after the first playthrough).
I've only played through on so far and I find the story enjoyable and very engaging. Keep up the good work.
Brilliant
Entertaining read :)
Getting bored after a while.
