How can I make a game where your choices matter?

I'm thinking of making a game (with Scratch, of course) where the choices you make matter (EX: If you do this, this will happen, but if you do something else, this will happen and effect the gameplay). Am I able to do that with Scratch? If so, what blocks could I use to make it possible?

Thanks for reading!

PS: I'm also wondering what blocks I could use to make the player able to save their data. Can anybody answer this question too?

Be aware that with every new choice you add into the game the amount of work you need to do increases exponentially.

If you want to save player data, using a cloud list should do the trick.

here’s one

Except cloud data is currently so limited this is probably not feasible.

You are necroposting by saying please don't do that. The necropost has been resolved and is from April last year.

Hey folks - this thread is old. If you need help with your project scripts, then please feel free to make a new topic. This will make your question easier for others to find, as opposed to posting on a separate thread.
