This game will be running from January 2 to 29, 2011.

"The Right Choice" is an interactive visual novel concept which takes the player through the story of jeremy and how he deals with the situation after he finds out that his brother, Xavier, has been abusing drugs. The player will be able to explore the consequences of his/her decisions based on the choices he/she makes and look at how drugs can destroy one's life.
We have the privilege to try out the game on the spot.
Argh, gotten this in my first try.
Shall try it again.
Upon seeing the first page, you can choose to play the game immediately 0r go to Extras for drugs knowledge reading.
Learnt all about the facts of drug abuse and the consequences.
Click play when you are ready and they will bring you to this page.
The player will take on the role of Jeremy, who suspects that his brother Xavier is abusing drugs.
The player will encounter scenarios where he/she has to make choices to progress in the game. Each choice will cause the story to progress differently, ultimately leading to different outcomes. A better choice will gain the player more points, while a worse choice will gain the player less points. The points accumulated will play a part in determining the outcome of the story.
The player will have to complete tasks throughout the story. For example, the player needs to find scraps of paper in the Xavier’s room in the screenshot above. All tasks are timed and the result will be converted into points and play a part in determining the outcome of the story as well.
The player then has to piece the scraps together for clues that Xavier is abusing drugs.
A memory game task where the player has to ‘open’ the cards to match the names and photos of the drugs.
The player will acquire drug knowledge when he/she ‘talk’ to other characters in the story in the course of helping Xavier. The player can choose to ‘talk’ to Xavier’s parents, friends or call a helpline. By ‘talking’ to these people, the player gains points.
After making a another choice, you will be brought to here.
A spot-the-difference game for players to spot drug items in Xavier’s room for clues that he is abusing drugs. The two images show how different Xavier’s room look before and after he started drug abuse.
The story climaxes when the Jeremy confronts Xavier at a nightclub and tries convincing him to stop his habits.
The game ends after Xavier admits his mistake and resolves to change. All points will be converted into a time score which the player will see at the end of the game.
I completed mine in 11 minutes 25 sec.
It is pretty true, life does not rewind. This is also the theme that the creation of the games were based on.
I like how the game relates back to our real life. At certain point of time, we have to make a wise decision as there is no undo function in both this game and our life. So one wrong move, everything will be game over.
By nevertheless, I have fun trying out the game. The game is pretty entertaining and at the same time, they are educating us, echoing the message on making the right choices during the game play and in life.
