Split Fiction uses a preference for sci-fi or fantasy as a kind of personality test.
Zoe, the fantasy author, is easygoing, has a sunny personality, and likes the country.
Mio, the sci-fi author, is more serious, cynical, and prefers the city.

People do like sci-fiandfantasy.

They wouldn’t be buying a sci-fi/fantasy game if they didn’t.
Final Dawn is an excellent shooter level that too many players just won’t be able to play.
