I've been playing Scripts: Episode & Choices for a few months now. It's a story-driven interactive fiction game. You can get it on Google Play and the Apple App Store. It's free to download. But like most games of this type, it has in-app purchases. You can buy premium choices and extra stories. Ads pop up between chapters, but you can pay to remove them.

You play by reading chapters. At key moments, you choose what the main character does. These choices change how the story goes. Some choices are free. Others cost gems, which you can earn slowly or buy. The best part for me is the variety of stories. There are romance, drama, mystery, and fantasy stories. My favorite part is the mystery stories. I love trying to solve the cases before the character does. The writing is good enough to keep me hooked. It's not groundbreaking, but it's solid for mobile gaming.

If you like Choices: Stories You Play, you will like this one. It is very similar. Both have chapter-based stories and gem choices. But Scripts feels less aggressive with its paywalls. Choices pushes you to spend gems a lot. Scripts gives you more free options. Another similar game is Episode. Episode has more user-created stories, but the quality varies a lot. Scripts has better written official stories. I recommend Scripts because it gives you a fair balance. You can enjoy a full story without spending a lot. The stories are more consistent in quality too.
