A Midsummer Night’s Choice
In this Shakespearean comedy adventure, can forbidden love conquer adorable fairy outlaws?
“A Midsummer Night’s Choice” is a 190,000-word interactive fantasy novel by Kreg Segall, where your choices control the story. It’s entirely text-based–without graphics or sound effects–and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind”
When your father, the Duke, tries to force you to marry, you’ll leave civilization behind as you flee in disguise, cross-dressed, into the enchanted forest. Mistaken identities, inexplicable bears, and tiny but fearsome fairies await! (Seriously, they wear little walnut shells for helmets, and ride armored baby bunnies into battle.)
Will you fall into the mysterious Faerie Queene’s clutches? Will you (or your identical doppelganger) find true love? Or will your father’s spies find you first?
Hold on to your heart! The course of true love never did run smooth.
- Play as male or female, gay, straight, or bi.
- Inspire the world with your noble deeds, or play everything for laughs.
- Star in a play within a play. (Er, within a game…that you are playing.)
- Become a jester, a diplomat, a knight, a poet, a shepherd–or leave the world behind and join the fairy court.
- Why is there a bear?!

这一部的情节就如作者自己所说,很大一部分是参考的《仲夏夜之梦》和《皆大欢喜》的桥段,森林啊变装啊,传统父权的压迫&建立在父权制度之外、贴近自然且由女性掌权的“狂欢节”空间blabla,梦回毕业论文。不过比较舒服的是,根据玩家的选择结尾不再有必要结束狂欢节并“回归正轨”,可以真正获得追逐爱情之外的自由,所以十分推荐用女性主角无恋爱线过一遍剧情!
DLC还包括不少其他戏剧相关的豆知识,感兴趣可以也买来看看!

充满喜剧色彩的游戏··· ···某些场景:我DNA动了! Nice day for a fishing(?)据说作者是Regis大学的教授,很多场景都有致敬莎翁戏剧的意思(那个六块钱的DLC··· ···仁者见仁吧,感觉就是批注,也还是很有意思,很多选择都有对应不同戏剧的解释。也可以了解到一些有关文艺复兴时期戏剧的事情)。又到了爷最爱的男扮女装的时刻了,算是弥补了广大戏剧里普遍女扮男装的缺失吧哈哈哈
阅读无难度,强推。

有点像个童话故事般的奇思妙想 ps 变装问别人对自己是否喜欢什么的好那个哦~
