Like the Reels, but Deeper
I already liked the choose-your-path posts, so this felt like a bigger version of that. More text, more atmosphere and more room to explore different decisions.

What Readers Say
A few early reactions from people who tried The Wrong Gate.
★★★★★
Started Reading Instantly
I got the Kindle version and started reading almost immediately. It is easy to go back, try another decision and see where the story leads next.
★★★★☆
Wanted Even More
I went through my first route faster than expected, but that made me restart right away. I also sent arcane.16bit some thoughts for part two, because I really want more of this world.
★★★★★
The Paperback Feels Right
I had to get the physical book. Flipping through the pages and jumping to the next section feels nostalgic in a good way and fits the whole idea really well.
★★★★★
Easy to Get Into
The concept is clear right away. You read a section, make a choice and jump to the next part. Simple setup, but it works really well.
★★★★☆
Short First Run, Great Replay
My first path ended sooner than I thought, but the second run felt different enough to make it worth going back. I just wanted a few more sections.
★★★★★
Really Visual Writing
The scenes are easy to picture and the mood is strong. It feels calm, strange and magical without explaining every little thing for too long.
★★★★★
Worth the eBook Price
For the Kindle price this was an easy buy. I read during a break, came back later and tried different decisions just to see what would change.
★★★★★
Nice Little Adventure
Not too heavy, not too complicated, just a nice fantasy adventure you can play through in your head. Perfect if you like testing different routes.
★★★★☆
A Little Too Calm Sometimes
I liked the writing a lot and the atmosphere was beautiful. Personally, I would have enjoyed a little more danger in a few scenes.
★★★★★
Good Shelf Book
The paperback looks great and feels like a proper fantasy book. The interactive structure makes it more fun than just reading straight through once.
★★★★★
More Detailed Than Expected
I expected something very short and simple, but some sections had more atmosphere than I thought. There are small details hidden in different paths.
★★★★★
Kept Going Back
After one ending I immediately wanted to see what would happen if I made the opposite choice earlier. That is probably the best part of the book.
★★★★★
Old Adventure Feeling
It reminded me of older interactive adventure books, but with a modern fantasy style. Choosing the next section still feels fun every time.
★★★★★
Simple, but Clever
You do not need a huge introduction. The book gives you a situation, a choice and then lets you move forward. That makes it very easy to keep reading.
★★★★★
Would Read Part Two
The idea has a lot of potential. I tried a few routes, found some cool moments and would definitely read another book in this style.
