The play on words in incredible, with an array of words. The fact that you can take charge if events that may or may not take place, based on the choices you choose to portray in, are genius. A very vibrant app for those who enjoy and have a love for reading. A great buy.
By far, one of my favorite ways to interact with the classic book Frankenstein. I pull this out every few years around Halloween and read it. It’s a great joy pleasure to interact with it.
Works perfect on my air 3 But where is the update for iPhone 6 plus. I'm not able to see it full screen
Tons of attention to detail. Plus, going through the story brings back memories of reading it in school.
I give it two thumbs up!

This is an exceptional application. The UI is simple and elevates the narrative - structuring it into Parts and Chapters so you know where you are. Yet it does this unobtrusively and in support of the story. I've been a fan of interactive fiction for some time and this ranks up there as one of the most readable and engaging interactive stories I've ever read. It's certainly a 'game changer' for literary applications. The Extras are also nice - the full text of Frankenstein as well as an image library with an explanation of where the images came from. The developer and author bios are interesting, as well. A tremendous amount of thought and work went into this - I can't wait for their next title!
This book is a wonderful tribute to Mary Shelley's masterpiece, but it goes beyond that. The artwork in the book is vivid, and the story itself is original. Though the book holds on to certain plot points, there is a wide degree of choice for the reader. The book goes in depth into the science and philosophy of Frankenstein's work, and also shows how the thoughts of the creature may have developed. Mary Shelley would have been proud.
I love it. This is the next gen reading experience! But there is one vital feature that should've been implemented already, iCloud backup to keep the reading in sync between iPad & iPhone versions!! Now I have ti choose rather reading on iPad or reading on iPhone :(
This app is beautiful and engaging. I am riveted! I hope this is the beginning of more.
This is quite possibly my favourite app. It's creative and original. I hope more of these interactive classics come to life, like Jane Eyre or a Jack the Ripper tale.
Frankenstein: Interactive Negative Reviews and Ratings
Could you please fix that by having chapter 27 be This app is amazing exclaim it's wonderful being able to choose what happens during the Frankenstein story. I have one suggestion: in the extras portion, Chapters 26 and 27 are identical, except 27 has Walton's continuation of Letter 4 at the end. Could you please fix that by having chapter 27 be just the continuation of the fourth letter, without the Chapter 23 duplicate at the beginning of the twenty-seventh chapter? Otherwise, this app is awesome and I can't wait for the update!
I adored the 80 Days game and replayed it three times, so I decided to try this one. Unfortunately, Frankenstein is much more limited and not nearly as open ended in terms of what happens and how, which limits the value of revisiting it. I also find the writing, a bit of a pastiche, less interesting than Shelley’s.
Bought this app for a literature course that I’m currently taking. It was working fine with iOS 10. When iOS 11 came out, it stopped working because it need to be update it. Please update.
On sale, but not updated to work with newest phone update. Lowering the price for a product that is literally not operational is pathetic. Scam. Con.
Not what I expected from inkle. 💸
Reshuffled text with no images, not sure if it even follows the original book, very disappointed with the purchase.
