Multiple endings refer to a case in entertainment (usually video games) where the story could end in different ways. ==Literature== Since multiple endings usually require audience participation, books are able to capture the concept better than movies or television. However, for the sake of telling a story, this device is rarely used. An example is the popular 1980s children's ''Choose Your Own Adventure'' series where the protagonist is "you," the reader, and you are given choices that lead to multiple outcomes. The Charles Dickens 1860 novel ''Great Expectations'' underwent a change in ending just before publication. Modern editions often print both versions. (However, this situation is more akin to an alternate ending.) However, perhaps the first true multiple-ending novel was ''Hopscotch'' by Julio Cortázar in 1963. In some comic book stories the readers are advised to make a choice, and then turn to another page, from which the story will continue. The 1983 strip ''Cliff Hanger'' was based entirely around this premise. Goosebumps also made books with branching storylines and multiple endings in the Give Yourself Goosebumps and Give Yourself Goosebumps Special Edition series. The novel ''Life of Pi'' offers the reader two choices as to how the protagonist's story should be interpreted. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Types of fiction with multiple endings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
