Pathways: Your Story, Your Choice-interactive storytelling tool.

Example

A player is immersed in a fantasy world where they must decide whether to ally with a rival kingdom or go to war. The choice shapes alliances, future battles, and character trust.

Scenario

In a fantasy war scenario, if the user chooses diplomacy, they might unlock secret negotiations and avoid bloodshed. If they opt for war, they face strategic battles, potential betrayals, and shifting alliances. These decisions not only impact the immediate story but also the ending.

Example

A user who enjoys mystery and has a strength in analytical thinking might find themselves solving a complex murder case, where clues are hidden within dialogues and environmental details.

Scenario

In a crime-solving narrative, the user could be tasked with piecing together evidence to prevent a crime. The AI adapts the difficulty of the puzzle and the types of clues offered, based on the user's strengths. If the player has a weakness in physical endurance, a timed chase scene might prove more difficult, raising the stakes.

Example

After deciding to explore a haunted mansion in a horror-themed story, the user is presented with eerie visuals of dark hallways and ghostly apparitions, enhancing the atmosphere.

Scenario

The player chooses to enter a haunted section of an abandoned house. The system generates images of their surroundings – flickering candlelight, decrepit furniture, and shifting shadows – to deepen immersion. The next decision point could involve fleeing from a supernatural entity or trying to communicate with it.
