The fact that Choices That Matter is a text-based adventure game will put off many people. After all, it lacks even the illustrations or basic animations that are available in visual novels, which remains popular today. But that shouldn’t stop players from giving it a go. The simple gameplay means that practically anyone can play it, while the story is compelling enough to keep users engaged. Anyone who starts the adventure will want to carry on to the end, seeing exactly how their decisions play out in every chapter, and that makes Choices That Matter: And The Sun Went Out well worth a try, even if it's not ground-breaking in its execution or presentation.
