Stories that shaped how people think, lead, dream and fear. Now on your screen, complete and playable. Philosophy. Strategy. Horror. Myth. Detective cases. Fairy tales. Timeless fiction. Each one rebuilt as an interactive edition. Pick a work. Press play. MEMBERSHIP OPENS EVERYTHING One membership unlocks every work in the collection and everything inside it. No separate purchases, no locked chapters, no advertising. PLAY THE STORY Every work has its own games, built from its own material: sliding puzzles cut from its artwork, memory matching, identify the scene, spot the false statement, and a spinner that picks where you go next. Every round is drawn from the work itself, so no two are the same. DECIDE, THEN FIND OUT WHY Interactive scenarios put you inside decisive moments and ask what you would do. Choose, then read the reasoning behind each answer and earn progress for thinking it through. LISTEN ANYWHERE Turn any work into continuous narration with adjustable voices and speed, background playback and lock screen controls. It keeps reading while your screen is off. READ THE COMPLETE TEXT The full text of every work, unabridged, in a reading view built for it. Illustrated throughout with original artwork made for these editions. EXPLORE THE WORLD AROUND IT Character profiles that change as the story moves. Glossaries that explain what a footnote would have. Timelines, locations, quotations and curated paths through the themes that run underneath. TRACK WHAT YOU FINISH Progress, streaks, ranks and achievements for each work separately, so one journey never collapses into another. WORKS WITH NO SIGNAL Every word, every illustration and every game is installed with the app. No internet connection is needed to use it, no account, no sign-in, and nothing about what you read leaves your device. IN THE COLLECTION NOW The Odyssey · Dracula · Frankenstein · The Picture of Dorian Gray · The Great Gatsby · Alice's Adventures in Wonderland · The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes · Meditations · The Prince · The Art of War · The Richest Man in Babylon · Blue Fairy Tales · Red Fairy Tales · Green Fairy Tales · Yellow Fairy Tales Each one is a full interactive edition, not an excerpt, and more are in production. A COLLECTION THAT GROWS New works are added over time, and a membership includes them as they arrive. Nothing you unlock is taken away. MEMBERSHIP A subscription is required to open the works. Monthly or yearly, cancel any time in your App Store settings. Prices are shown in the app before you subscribe.
