Gravity Falls: Dipper and Mabel and the Curse of the Time Pirates' Treasure!: A "select Your Own Choose-Venture!" by Jeffrey Rowe

3.0

Dipper and Mabel are off on a new adventure searching for Time Pirate treasure with Blendin. In this choose-your-own-adventure story, you control where they go and what they do, hopefully leading to a happy ending. But if you choose the wrong path, the twins will end up lost in time.

This is such a fun addition to the Gravity Falls cartoon universe! I really loved all the wacky adventures. You can choose to go to the Old West, to a Medieval castle, or into the future to face off against the Time Baby. Whichever path you choose, you are sure to have a weird and wild adventure!

There were two places in this story where you are asked to make a moral choice, to seek vengeance or not, and to cheat in a race or not. But each time, if you choose the moral option, the narrative just laughs at your "silly" choice and forces you back into the storyline where you seek vengeance and cheat. I guess it was supposed to be funny, but it felt wrong to me.
