If you’re not careful and you noclip out of reality in the wrong areas, you’ll end up in the Backrooms, where it’s nothing but the stink of old moist carpet, the madness of mono-yellow, the endless background noise of fluorescent lights at maximum hum-buzz, and approximately six hundred million square miles of randomly segmented empty rooms to be trapped in.
God save you if you hear something wandering around nearby, because it sure as hell has heard you.

We wandered off like children in the woods
And let the searchers come but never find us
Tried to make a life among the trees
While your dreams collected planes and cars and cities
You slipped away from me while I was sleeping
To climb the tallest oak and see the lights
Your dissatisfaction gave you questions
Do you remember what the city sounded like?
The characters in this game have started a new life, on an idyllic island. They are determined to start afresh, back to nature, in a fruitful jungle.
Life is good.
Key to the story is that the island they move to is an absolute paradise. However, when the characters sleep, they dream.
And when they dream, their heads get filled with memories, aspirations, fears.
Gradually, the more they dream, the dreams affect them, and push them towards going to a different life.
The dreams are subtle, but like an enemy.
Some realise what is happening, others do not.
Can they keep their community together?
In this story you will describe life in an idyllic, unspoiled paradise … and also dreams which challenge the character, making them crave the things of the modern world they have left behind. The story will be within the waking life and the unsettling dreams.
I’m experimenting with AI in games at the moment. I will provide you with data you can paste into an AI to help prepare moves. The data will give more indepth information to the AI to help build your move. This does not mean you have to use AI to write the move … the AI will unpack for you some of the key points which the challenge card would tend to steer you towards.

Welcome to Doskvol, where the sun is an ember, the fog is thick, the streets are hungry, and the law is just another weapon. A Victorian England setting where the dead no longer cross over, reappearing as ghosts if they’re not destroyed.
Angela Digby is dead. Her estate is vast, her will is wrong, and her ghost is not haunting the margins of the case — she is sitting across the table from you, wearing her grandson’s face. Bartholomew Digby hid his grandmother’s body from the Spirit Wardens and let her possess him so she could testify. He has days left before the possession becomes permanent.
The Digby patriarch has the fraudulent will, the court connections, and every reason to make sure neither of them survives the week intact.
You are the Dirty Attorneys: advocates, investigators, fixers, and scandal-handlers hired to find the real will, keep the client in one body, and steer the case through a court that would rather bury the truth than hear it from a dead woman’s mouth.

Welcome to the call floor. Leave your dignity at the door.
This is a comedy. The stakes are low. The chaos is high. Your character’s job is simple — survive the shift, keep your stats out of the red, and never let the boss catch you doing anything human.
At the heart of the city of Sanditon, CA, is a call center that handles sales, collections, and customer service for clients who expect miracles and pay for mediocrity. Dozens of cubicles, fluorescent lights that buzz just slightly off-key, and a management team obsessed with metrics that nobody fully understands. Stats are everything. Appearances matter almost as much. And underneath the daily grind of angry callers, impossible quotas, and questionable break room hygiene, something bigger is quietly building.
Players navigate the chaos of daily call center life — keeping their numbers up, managing relationships, surviving the politics — while the world around them shifts in ways that are funny, strange, and occasionally dangerous. Every character, every location, every bad day on the phones is a piece of something larger that nobody on the call floor quite sees yet.
Comedy is the tone. Chaos is the currency.

The classmen and women of Posh university in the Northeast have long enjoyed their yacht race and it is a time-honored tradition for the past 175 years.
However, cuts to the fraternities and sororities has meant that the university has had to cut funding to extracurriculars over the semester and it looks like the race is going to be canceled. Jobs are hard to come by and there simply isn’t enough at burger joints and stores to get the needed funds.
However, there is a statewide battle of the bands with a fifty-thousand-dollar prize that will put the Ivy League school well over the threshold to have their precious tradition, and after all, those rockers and musicians don’t have the world-class educations in the arts like the students and faculty of Posh U do, so how hard can winning the contest be?
This is a humor game that has a bunch of no-nothing know-it-alls and their friends competing in a battle of the bands. I want to sort of channel snob-mocking humor here, but in a generally nice way, more akin to maybe something like “Frasier” or similar programs.
The is going to be a short story, probably 4 scenes and it is meant to be a humor game.

You asked for this.
There was no telling what you’d find on that headset. You took the risk, and you lost.
The Amazing Digital Circus is a magical place, according to Caine, the AI that controls everything in here (besides you, of course). Why would someone ever want to leave when they can take part in adventures every day? You’ll face candy bandits, haunting ghosts, the occasional song, and even your own players. Say goodbye to your normal life, and get ready to play.
