Fakeality vs Sub Rosa

Most story games hand you a script and let you pick which branch to walk down. Fakeality doesn't have a script — the story is written around you. Pick where you start. Thirteen stories, each hand-written as a place to begin: moving into a Brooklyn apartment with a job that starts Monday. A 1948 Chicago death the police called an accident. A season in Bath with an inheritance riding on it. A caretaker post at a house nobody visits in winter. A cyberpunk job the fixer won't put a number on. A dam settlement that runs its lights four hours a night. Then the rest is yours. Do what you want, say what you want, go where you want — and the people around you actually respond to it. Not a fixed menu of replies, but the real situation you've created. Push somewhere unexpected and the story doesn't break; it follows you. Nothing is waiting at the end, because there is no set ending. Every scene is generated by AI as you play, so no one's story is ever the same — even we don't know where yours goes. If you've ever had a great night at a tabletop RPG, where you could try anything and someone made the whole world react, that's the feeling — in your pocket, ready in a few spare minutes. And when you've had enough of ours, build one of your own. Your setting, your cast, your tone — Fakeality writes the world and plays it with you. ABOUT CREDITS Writing an original story on the fly takes real computing power. The large majority of what you pay goes directly to the AI that generates your story — credits exist to cover that cost, so the story can keep responding to anything you do.

A text-based LitRPG, descended from classic MUDs and rewritten for the phone in your pocket. You do not play a run. You read a book. Each book is five chapters, each chapter a place descended at four depths, and one protagonist walks all twenty of them: your level, your virtues, your health, your gear, your relics and your purse come with you from one descent to the next. There are ten books, in fantasy, pirates, sci-fi, horror and western. Every dungeon is written whole before you arrive, every room in view of the others, so what one room plants a later one pays off, and the road out of one chapter is the road into the next. The walls describe themselves. Enemies have reasons to be there. Choices in narrative rooms are not dice rolls dressed up: they shape what the dungeon becomes. Experience is earned where you earn it. Kill something or read a room truly and the numbers appear beneath the prose, in their own hand: the roll, the damage, the gold, the experience. Cross a level in a corridor and you place the point there, in the room that gave it to you. At the third level, the fifth and the seventh, the dungeon offers you a trait to keep. Chapters open in order. Clear a place at all four depths and the next one opens; lose a descent and the chapter in progress is taken back, though nothing you carried home is. What you take home from a victory is a relic or more, halved in strength but kept in memory, and every descent you finish is written into your chronicle, re-readable as prose long after the dungeon is closed. Combat is four virtues and a single die. Strike, brace, speak, study, each resolved in candlelight. Once a week, a single dungeon is drawn for everyone who dares it. Same rooms, same seed. Descend it and see where you stand: survivor, contender, ascendant, or paragon. Place well and the week pays you in coin and a trophy for your study. Earlier weeks stay on the shelf as unranked practice. (A subscriber feature.)
