FAQ

**Welcome!** Here are some of the most asked questions about *Novels*, if your question isn't here, you can leave your comment bellow and we will answer you and add it to the list if necessary.

## **What is *Novels: Choices Do Matter***?

*Novels* is an interactive story app by Ayist Games, where you can customize your character and directly control the flow of the story. All the storylines are just setting the scene for your own plot to unwind as your decisions and choices will affect everything.

## **What's an interactive story?**

An \*interactive story is a story where you can chose your own path based on your choices. You decide how to react and what do do in different situations. And those decisions affects the direction of your story.

## **Is Novels free to play?**

**Yes.** The app is free to download and play. Premium scenes/outfits and also special event limited items require in-game currency (Gems/Rubies) in order to be played or worn. And each chapter requires a "ticket" to be played, except the first one of any book that is free and the final one (season finale) that costs two tickets. When you restart a chapter or the entire book, tickets will be required for reading again. By default, each player has two tickets, which regenerate every two hours, starting after the total amount is less than two tickets. The in-game currency is very easy to obtain, so it is easy to enjoy this game without spending real money. But in-game currency can be also purchased with real money if so you wish.

## **How can I get more Gems/Rubies?**

Some choices/outfits are premium and cost Gems which is represented by a ruby. You can get gems by:

* Watching an ad every two hours to earn two gems (Every two hours you are credited with one advertisement that you can watch. The maximum amount of accumulated ads is three videos. The two hour countdown timer restarts when you have less than three ads accumulated.)
* You get one gem at the end of every chapter you play (even when replaying). And you can also watch an ad to double your reward.
* You get gems as your daily login reward, the longer you log in for, the more rubies you get, up to a maximum of 6 rubies a day.:
	+ From 1 to 5 days - 1 ruby per day
	+ From 6 to 14 - 2 rubies per day
	+ From 15 to 25 - 3 rubies per day
	+ From 26 to 49 - 4 rubies per day
	+ From 50-99 - 5 rubies per day
	+ AND from day 100 - 6 rubies per day⃣
* You are also able to purchase gems, though you can play without purchasing anything at all.
* New ways to get gems are coming soon.

## **Are my purchases saved if I replay/restart a chapter/book?**

Yes. Gems options you've previously purchased will be free when you replay.

## **Can I personalize my Main Character (MC)?**

**Yes.** You can customize MC's ethnicity, outfit, hairstyle. But all currently-released books are gender-locked and you can only play as female.

## **When will new chapters be released?**

## **When will an upcoming book come out?**

## **Which characters are romanceable in each book?**

On each book page, there's a list of the Love Interests (LIs). Please note that not every list might contain every possibility yet, since some books are still ongoing. You can also find that list for all books in the Character Directory page.
