This piece applies a Black Mirror lens onto choose your own adventure. It is very intriguing. Definitely worth a try if you have Netflix. However, the biggest appeal is the novelty.

The interactive choose-your-own-adventure aspect is initially interesting, then time-consuming and ultimately not dramatically satisfying.
