Meanwhile: Interactive Comic

I can't believe I payed for this, it wasn't as great as I remember. I passed it a lot faster than last time.

Thank you for the breakthrough approach to interactive comics!

one of my favs

More coming, I hope?

Very good comic

I read the book before I played the game and the game actually works even better. It's basically a choose your own adventure book in graphic novel form.

There are so many brilliant details in Meanwhile. It's fun to work through, and try to figure out how combining things can lead to new situations. i really appreciate that they took a book that had been turned into a poster and kept that tactile feel in the transition to iOS. For instance, it has access code puzzles that are implemented in a way that were amazing for a print medium, and I really love that they stayed the same here instead of switching to buttons. The only critical thing I can say about the game is that the monotonous click sound is horrible. No big deal.

I jumped out of my chair when I saw this in the app store! Meanwhile is a favorite book of mine - one of those special creations of genius that only come along once every few years. But to see it on the iPad is even more wonderful. And they did a great job! The UI is clean; it takes advantage of the iPad without detracting from the creation itself. Better yet: they did the extra work to make it all accessible to vision-impaired users. This goes straght to the top of my recommended app list. Buy it immediately - and then buy the book too! Both are gems.

I remember reading the book and with this new app I can't pry my friends off me! Just love it perfect job.

Definitely an expansion into new territory for the iOS, this "hypercomic" is simple yet engrossing. The art is really awesome and not pixelated at all since the last update, the story is silly and well-told, and the implications are pretty crazy. Best of all, it flows so naturally, and going back only takes a quick touch. I never read the book, but I might pick it up after this, even if it's not quite as convenient.
