16 Positive User Reviews for To Be Or Not To Be -Ryan North
Horribly cute and enjoyable
Fun and clever little app in that "choose your own adventure" style based on Hamlet. Good writing, lovely art, and while a light little app, I for one definitely got my $5 worth. There is a lot of funny stuff in there that made me giggle but I fear anything I could say beyond that would give away too much.
Thank you for updating!
Okay, now I can update to 11.
Great with some bugs
Hi! I love this game; I have it on my PC and I was delighted to find it as an app on my phone. I’ve noticed a few bugs, though.
1. When I’m trying to look through the art gallery, when I then ask it to go back to the story, it leaves me on the same page.
2. The artwork that shows for King Hamlet resuming his reign as a ghost with Gertrude is instead the same artwork you get for choosing to be upset about Gertrude marrying your brother and burying yourself in rock and digging a hole from Denm
Best game ever!
This game with leave your balls throughly tripped!!!!
Hilarious.
The game is brilliantly written, stock full of amusing side quests and intelligent, though snide, commentary on Shakespeare's classic. The price is high for an app but given the effort to create the game, I'd say worth it.
Always Ryan
Always buy Ryan North. You will never regret.
Weird. Wonderful.
I love these guys and the bizarre and beautiful style they bring to things. Hope to see this taken further!
I would like to give this ten stars.
It is utterly hilarious, and yet touchingly true to the story and characters (except where it improves them). A masterpiece of literary humor.
Recommended... for kids
Nice artworks, but the smart tone gets more and more annoying as I read alone. Maybe it's good for kids to develop an interest in classic literature, but I fail to get much out of it in the end.
Funny and Easy to Play/Read
The endings come quick and with a big laugh each time. There's never a boring moment when you're making choices for one of three Hamlet characters as you read. Hilarious, amusing, and highly addictive!
Love the Artists
Saw this and thought the illustrations looked familiar. Looked it up here on the App Store and saw Kate Beaton and Nedroid in the credits and I had to buy it just to support these guys. I’m excited to play it, I’m a big fan of their works.
Help!
I’m stuck in a loop in the menu. I want to go back to the story but every time I click that, it takes me to the extras! Meh, I haven’t gone too far into the story, I can try to reset it I don’t want to get stuck again.
EXCELLENT STORY GAME
Great story telling! The artwork is great! There are many side adventures, murders, and ghosts to follow. Ryan North is brilliant!!!

TOO SHORT FOR $5.99
I hate reading but was looking for something entertaining to keep engaged and interested in reading. I thought this might do it, and it did, BUT each "choose your own adventure" that I did (just two to be fair) very quickly ended, and not because of poor choices. Its like they ran out of funny and clever ways to continue the story so they quickly wrapped it up. Fun, but not worth $6 for 15 minutes!
Expensive
Not enough content for the price. I feel ripped off.
Not my kind of humor
Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy the humor of the game and apparently it's just a big joke from start to finish. Art is great and the "this is what Shakespeare did" indicator is a neat feature.
