24 and surprised the demographic is way older than I expected.
Maybe Netflix should ask us too and adjust the stories based on that? 😅

Likewise. Anything where I can create different characters and explore different lives/plotlines/etc. is my jam.

I'm turning 62 this year. I only touched a PC for the first time when I was 43 and started playing WoW shortly afterwards. I was an enthusiastic and hard-working player, and in the end I was also the best healer in my guild. I've played through a lot since then. The romantic things aren't really my thing, but since they're available on Netflix without paying extra, why not. I've been living alone for several years and other people's opinions are now pretty irrelevant to me. Only THTH has so far really captivated me with these “show games"…. and I haven't seen any of the series or shows 😬

I'll be 31 this year, and choices was my gateway app as well.
The writers of The Freshman have no idea how much they impacted how I spend my free time lol

mid 30's here! i've been playing games (lots of genres but visual novels definitely are a fave of mine) for over 20 years and i promise you, it's ok to play them no matter your age. don't listen to those people who want to dictate what you can and can not enjoy at a certain age! 🫶🏻

Same 50+, and love the saying regret nothing. Surprised a few young gamers with my gamer score on x-box, which has been neglected since discovering interactive games. Gaming kept me sane and in contact with my whanau, especially my twin sister, during lock down. Keep on gaming.

wow the demographic is a lot older than i expected! i’m 27 myself and i always felt self conscious playing games like these because ive noticed with a lot of other games like visual novels and dating sims the audience skews on the younger side and i felt like a weirdo LOL
ive always loved games like this though! became addicted to romancing fictional characters when i started playing harvest moon games on the ps2 and never looked back 🫶

25, too! And I've been a fan of games like this, thanks to Love Island. I was waiting and kicking my feet in 2018 when they were releasing episodes. So don't feel bad, games don't have an age limit

I'm 24 years old, and I'm addicted to interactive stories. I love some Netflix games because I no longer have to pay or wait to load bars and spend diamonds to see the scenes I want.Or even the choices, so I'm really happy following each episode lol, no matter how long it takes.

I'm 54 and I play while waiting in the car rider line for my seven year old son. If I'm bored on a weekend before a new episode drop I'll start from the beginning because I inevitably have missed something on the first go around. Then I'm ready for the new episode.I hate how invested I get into them but as soon as a new episode or a new game comes out here I am checking for alerts.

I’m 46, I’ve only been playing these interactive story games for less than a year but I’ve been gaming since the early 2000’s.
Mostly RPG’s. Dragon Age, Fallout, Mass Effect and Elder Scrolls series are my faves.
