Lore: Interactive Stories is an interactive fiction app that places you at the center of immersive, character-driven stories. Explore romance, mystery, fantasy, and drama through interactive scenes, meaningful choices, and conversations with characters who have their own goals, secrets, and perspectives. They don't just react to your choices - they reach out, build relationships, and help shape how each story unfolds. Lore's writers previously wrote for Netflix Stories and Episode, where they created the top stories on each platform. We launched with four premium stories and have just added a sixth. THE FATE GAME - A reality dating show where tarot cards shape every decision, and every connection comes with consequences. CLUB HOLLYWOOD - Navigate ambition, relationships, and scandal as you rise through the world of fame and entertainment. MY COLLEGE FANTASY - As the only human at a magic college, your choices could change friendships, rivalries, and the future of two worlds. OUTBREAK ESCAPE - A camping trip turns into a fight for survival when a zombie outbreak changes everything. PLAYING PRINCESS - Step into royal life for three weeks, win over the prince, outsmart court intrigue, and protect a secret that could change everything. MY ITALIAN INTERNSHIP - Chase your dream job in Rome while rivalry, ambition, and unexpected relationships complicate every step. New chapters launch every week, with more stories coming soon. Lore has no ads and no premium choices. The first two chapters of every story are free to play, and an all-access subscription unlocks every chapter across all stories.
