Thank you so much for your text-based games recs!! I love them!
My pleasure, and me too! These games/novels are all lovely (sometimes lovely is not the right word, but kicking fictional characters in the face is its own brand of lovely, you know?) and clear labours of love, and there’s something super interesting and personal in how their writers all handle interactivity in their own ways.
Also, I’ve realised I’m throwing all of these at you without context and that’s a bit shoddy of me. Actually, you can find all the writers on Tumblr, and some of them have other written works published or in progress and Patreons or Ko-fi accounts. If any demo punches you in the gut and makes you want to dig deeper, here are a few ways you can support them:
*diaspora (high fantasy & politics) · Kiku and August’s blog · the game’s forum · their patreon [where you catch a glimpse of their other written projects]
*the passenger (modern lovecraftian horror) · Pimenita’s blog for the game · the game’s forum · and some Ko-fi
*the golden rose (adventure) · Ana’s blog · the game’s forum · and some Ko-fi
*bad ritual (urban fantasy) · Marti’s blog · their other games · and some Ko-fi
*shepherds of haven (high fantasy & adventure) · Lena’s blog · the game’s forum · (there’s also a forthcoming novel that sounds dope) · her patreon
*retribution (speculative/superhero fiction) · the first volume of the story · Malin’s blog and blog for the game · his graphic novel with Emma Vieceli, vol. 1 - vol. 2
Well, there, you’re all set. Also, should I just pack my things and leave my life behind to become a social media manager like the youths do these days, she whispered, looking at the scary list.
