    @Marco Lotti

    @Nyctha

  • Fascinating idea to combine audiobooks and gamebooks! New entertainment unlocked on the go!

    @mokodeoz

  • I started playing since the first release of Marco Polo and let me tell you: I’ve not missed any adventure since then. I can freely say that I’m addicted to audiogames. Once you start, you can’t stop (I should say, you don’t want to).

    @Alexandra_Ramona

  • The app works flawlessly. The stories are captivating and immersive, with excellent voice acting and top-notch sound design. Using headphones or earphones is highly recommended to enjoy it at its best. A brilliant idea, and I hope it has a bright future ahead. Kudos to the creators!

    @Paolo Verzini

  • A wonderful and well-executed idea!

    @Marco Mazza

  • Incredible, would really recommend. Interesting stories, thought out gameplay options.

    @Isaac D

    @Donna's Reviews

  • A fantastic experience, I love this style of interactive audiobook. The narration is excellent, and the ability to make choices and decisions is wonderful. I hope you continue developing it because it's a great idea.
