PUGMIRE (By Pugsteady and Onyx Path)
Dogs have inherited the world, building the kingdom of Pugmire untold centuries after the Ages of Man are over. Pugmire is a world that juxtaposes the tropes of high fantasy with our relationship with domestic dogs. The main characters are pioneers that explore lost ruins in search of relics, knowledge, and danger. The world is dangerous and mysterious, but good dogs will persevere.
THEY CAME IN OUTER SPACE (By Double RR Studios)
In this comedy that plays off of 50's style sci-fi B-movie and radio drama tropes, Herbie Zoozman Jr., has reinvented the Interactive Cranial Activit-O-Vision ™, where YOU are Zoozman’s Co-Producer in charge of the mythic story of rocket-jockey Commander Brad L. Whiteman and his journey to a planet inhabited entirely by "Panther Women."
HEAD GAMES (Enhanced with Bose AR)
This Sci-Fi thriller is controlled by gestures like nodding, head shaking, ducking, and turning, as well as voice. When you are contacted by mental telepathy while using the Bose device, an NSA agent guides you to communicate with head gestures to prevent an alien invasion. But the aliens want to tell you their side of the story. Who will you trust? Developed in partnership with Bose, this story experience is enhanced by Bose AR, a first-of-its-kind audio augmented reality platform.

Ratings and Reviews
Demo Story & App review
Interesting, and initially strange to be faced with choices that include "kiss the strange young woman who just sat down across the table from you in the restaurant, and is hurriedly demanding you kiss her". I'm sure I'm not the only person for whom kissing a female would not be the first choice of whom to kiss. But I decided, go with it woman! I will assume that the story writers will permit us to select in our own minds, in each game scenario, whether the character we are playing is heterosexual, bi or homosexual,… And male, female or gender neutral? (Or any other options that may exist but I am currently spacing on, LOL?)
Cannot wait to find out whether they will let us select a different ethnic/cultural background within a game story,… or different skill sets say for an agent? Will they eventually expand the interaction to, say, let us ask our "handler" (a.k.a. the voice in our heads) to "remind us who someone is", or "describe the room/building/location" we are in? If these interactive audio games come even halfway to matching my imagination, this should be a blast while I'm getting other real life but boring things accomplished.
Intriguing!
This game looks to be lots of fun, however, there are accessibility issues that need to be resolved causing me to give this only a four star review rather than the five star it could have. Outside of that, game content and quality is great, and refreshing to find something different.
Lots of fun
These are all very enjoyable and well acted. I wish the app properly saved my place but it never has once and there’s no indication so if I leave a story, I have to start over.
It would also be nice to offer a downloadable version the way the old Codename Cygnus app used to work where you could play without an internet connection so you don’t lose access to these great stories once the servers inevitably go offline.
