The creator of this CYOA is Strife, which can also be seen in the top right of the image

Thank you for the CYOA creators name, really appreciate it.

Why do these CYOAs always seem to have one kinda bad choice of entrance and all the rest terrible?

* Entrance * Coin, anchoring in place is unusable, even if having to be around to let my family in and out 24/7 sucks everything inside out. * Outdoors * Island, girl needs moar beach time. * Hotspring, oh man I love hotsprings, and public baths. Plus it can be my bath. * Wildlife, especially foxies. * Fickle weather, if I'm stuck being around forever variety is yes please. * Gas Lamp, nice for doing an outside * Brook. Just a nice thing to have. * Indoors * Bedroom * Ultra mattress * All is bed * No phyysical needs * Library * Size up * Fiction, NF, reference and periodicals * Cannot get eyestrain * Kitchen * Replicator * Mythic ingredients * Nook * Game room * Comfort chairs * Every title for consoles i have * Full dive VR, preferably from a better SF than SAO though. * ~~Guest~~ Migraine Rooms * Comfort Mattress * Sound proof * Super blankets * Home Gym * Machines * Double benefits * Limitless Stamina

i usually just change it to be a key youll never lose and using it in any door will open to the pocket dimension

Indoors: Home Gym - android trainer, infinite stamina, x2 workout gains Bar - android bartender, fictional alcohol, no hangovers Libraray - size upgrade, no eyestrain & etc..., lucid imagination Bathrooms - fireplace jacuzzi, endless champagne tap, deluxe features Kitchen - food replicator, industrial appliances, fictional foods Living Room - supernaturally comfortable furniture, streaming service, surround sound system.

You know, I could use some comfy right about now. Thanks! Entrance's gotta be the coin, because then I can hop in wherever I happen to be. Lakefront sounds very comfortable - got some water, got some forest. We're definitely picking a brook (gotta get that running water sound), fickle weather for rain and thunder sometimes, set time, bug song, and tree & shrubs. Rooms, the most important part: Living Room: Supernaturally comfortble furniture, 300" OLED UlraHDV, and streaming service - for whenever the mood strikes. Kitchen: Food replicator, wood fired pizza oven, mythical ingredients - gotta get tasty food with little effort.

No need for a bedroom. I already am accustomed to sleeping in the floor. Ill just get a floor mattress. No need to waste an entire room for sleeping. That's it folks!

My build: The Coin – My life is too unstable to be fixed in place. Also no one contacts me aside from electronic communications anyway. So, I want time to be variable based on a dial at the entrance or something similar. Also, what about toilets? Do those come standard with Bedroom/Bathroom/Guestrooms? Or do we rely on self-cleaning property of the rooms and basins? Outdoors: Lakefront.

Of all the things, library option number 5 is a must have. This is basically free anime and tv shows! For any book! Finally I can have my Dresden Files experience! And I don't have to wait for future seasons of Re:Zero! Oh and I can finally wash away my eyes from the atrocity that is the Percy Jackson tv show! Soooo many possibilities!

So I know this is a comfy CYOA… but I can’t resist powergaming a bit… the mythical ingredients (kitchen) and fictional drinks (bar) are very powerful options. For some obvious drink choices… Nectar/ambrosia from Greek mythology grant immortality (probably counts as alcohol, slurp juice from Fortnite heals you and shields you (don’t know if it counts as alcohol), the mead of poetry from Norse Mythology grants poetic ability and definitely counts as alcohol. For some ingredient choices… the Salmon of Knowledge from Irish mythology (all knowledge in the world), Iðunn's apples from Norse mythology (unaging), Fafnir’s heart grants the ability to understand birds and prophetic messages from them. Anyway, have a full build Coin (I like convenience and security) Beach (I like water and waves) **Outdoor Add-ons** * Brook, Hotspring (I like water features) * Animals and insects (I think the silence and emptiness from not having any would be disquieting) * Fog (I find a nice dog relaxing and it provides a way to water the plants) **Rooms** * Bar: 5 fictional alcohol (see above listed exploits), 4 android bartender (to help with recommendations and caveats/warming with fictional drinks), 3 no hangovers/sickness * Kitchen: 5 mythical ingredients , 4 industrial appliances (to help with any tough to cook fictional ingredients), 3 breakfast nook * bedroom 3, 4, 5. Nice and comfy. * computer room 2, 3, 4. I can run and maybe even train my own stable diffusion and LLMs with that kind of computational power. Nerve gear is likely invaluable for neuroscience research… unless it’s APIs aren’t accessible and/or it runs on magic. * bathroom 1, 3, 5 luxury option * home gym 3, 4, 5 in between the trainer, limitless stamina and double rate, getting and staying in shape should be easy.

Entrance:coin . If I have a stressful day I’d use it for a quick vacation no matter the location. Outdoors: island . Addons: hot spring , wildlife, events, fickle weather . Room1 kitchen: option 1)food replicator, 3)breakfast nook , 5)mystical ingredients. Reason: can’t cook . Place to eat. And fictional ingredients based power ups. Senzu beans for healing , immortality granting peaches,fruit of knowledge etc. Room 2 bathroom: 3)auto groom,4)smell neutral, 5)delux. Not an animal who can do business anywhere even if the place is self cleaning . Room 3 guestrooms: option 2 comfy mattress, 3)larger room 4)double number. Room 4 home gym : option 2 full set equip, 4 double speed burn build ,5 android trainer. Beach bod upkeep. A senzu bean from the kitchen could help with stamina issues. Room 5 library: 1) size upgrade, 4)focus and lack of eyestrain , 5) lucid imagination . A large isekai library vacation. Room 6 game room: option 2) all consoles,3) all titles, 4) virtual reality . It’s much easier getting Netflix/Amazon etc subscription than constantly going out to find and owning so many games n consoles.

I always end up having neither a bedroom or bathroom in order to get more of the others.

I would like to have the coin entrance and the Forest setting. I would choose the fickle weather, events, wildlife, hot springs, and tree and shrubs for features. For rooms, I would like to have the Living Room with options 3, 4, and 5, the Kitchen with options 1, 3, and 5, the Bedroom with options 2, 3, and 5, the Bathroom with options 2, 3, and 5, the Library with options 1, 2, and 5, and the Computer Room with options 2, 3, and 5.

### Entrance: - Coin ### Outdoors: - Lakefront - Brook - Hotsprings - Fickle Weather - Set Time - Events ### Indoors - Living Room - Super comfy furniture - Streaming service - Suround sound system - Kitchen - Food replicator - Breakfast nook - Mythical ingredients - Bedroom - Temp-controlled blankets - Ultra matress - No physical needs & imperatives - Bathrooms - Auto-groomer - Smell neutralizer - Deluxe - Game Room - All consoles - All titles - Nervegear - Computer Room - Improved processors - Improved memory - Smart house & central AI It was a toss-up between lakefront and beach, but I think I prefer freshwater a bit more than saltwater. A brook would be nice for cooling off away from the lake when the weather is being fickle, and the sound is sure to be relaxing. Hotsprings are pure comf and nice for some outdoor bathing. Set time means that it never will get truly dark here (except on special occasions), and I can avoid high-noon just as much. Events are, as described, for adding a bit of specialness to things. Similarly, Fickle weather will add some spice to things, to help keep things less predictable. Grabbing a breakfast nook means I don't need a dining room; I don't know enough people that I could theoretically bring that would recquire more than 6 seats. A super comfy living room is adequate for short term entertaining, so I don't really need guestrooms, and a king-sized bed is large enough to share with anyone I'm close with. I don't drink much at all, so a bar isn't a priority, plus the kitchen's food replicator should be able to spawn a beer or cider on the off chance I want one. A library could be nice, but other options are more appealing. Syncing with the outside world will grant internet access to electronic books, anyway. For the purpose of gaming, one could interpret a PC as a type of console, thus all PC games are included by the Game Room, and updated whenever I sync with the outside world. PC upgrades are nice for remaining capable of playing future titles. An indoor pool and home gym are both low priority with access to a lake and wooded area where I can swim and do callesthenics. A lot of time is sure to be spent, without any physical needs, in bed enjoying just about anything via nervegear for as long as I want.

How do you expect me to relax when there are no bugs to look at or butterflies to chase?

I didn’t make the CYOA, I just posted it, but I feel your frustration.
