Unbound: AI Text RPG Unbound Together (Multiplayer): Play with your friends and try to live the longest! You are all born in the same town and age up at the same time. Live any life you can type. No menus, no scripted choices: just tell the AI what you do, and watch a whole life unfold around it. Every action is interpreted fresh by an AI game master that reacts to exactly what you typed, at exactly the age and situation your character is in. Ask someone out. Start a company. Rob a bank. Run for office. Say something you shouldn't have said at dinner. The story adapts in real time, and it remembers everything. Every relationship, every job, every consequence, it remembers. A LIFE THAT ACTUALLY REMEMBERS YOU Friends, family, coworkers, rivals, and partners are real, named people who stick around. Jobs come with real titles and real salaries. Money is tracked honestly: spend it, invest it, go broke, or get rich. Nothing resets between turns. CONSEQUENCES ARE REAL Danger is danger. Risk is risk. The AI won't soften a bad decision just to keep the story comfortable: and when it's time for something big (a job interview, a heist, a negotiation), it plays out step by step instead of resolving in one line. CHAOS MODE Turn up the unpredictability for wilder scenarios, sharper stakes, and total customizability over how unhinged your simulation gets. BUILD A FAMILY LEGACY When a life ends, it doesn't have to be over. Continue the story as your character's child and carry the family history: relationships, reputation, and consequences: into the next generation. HOW IT WORKS Every day you get free energy to keep playing. Need more? Watch a quick ad or grab an energy pack. Want the smoothest experience? Go Premium for a big monthly energy boost, or unlock Chaos Mode permanently. Unbound is unscripted, AI-generated fiction: every playthrough is different because every player is different. This app contains mature themes including death, danger, and dark comedy; content is filtered against generating explicit content involving minors, real-world harm instructions, and hate speech, and every event can be reported for review. Be a world famous CEO, a soccer star, or raise a family! Type your first action. See what happens. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
