Survival Stories: Choice-Based Interactive Story Game
Interactive novelsiPhone · iPad · Android
Survival Stories brings choice-based interactive story games and visual novel adventures to iPhone, iPad and Android, with branching narratives and multiple endings.
How it plays
How a story plays out
Survival Stories is survival told as a visual novel. There is no inventory to manage and no meters to watch — the pressure comes from choices that close doors behind you.
Pick a scenario
Six self-contained stories: a plane crash in Lost Horizons, open water in Raft to Nowhere, the traps of Temple of the Wretched, something aboard the ship in Space Terror, and the two newest — Nightmare on the Coast and Zone of the Unknown.
Read the situation
Each scene sets out what you know, what you do not, and who else is involved. Playing as different characters — and dressing them — changes the frame you read it through.
Make the call
Paths branch on your decisions. Some of them look small at the time and turn out not to be.
Live with the ending
Every story has more than one, and the one you reach is the one your choices led to. Going back means choosing differently.

The world
The stories you live through
Each novel is a self-contained survival scenario with branching paths and different endings. Fight for the group in Lost Horizons after a plane crash, endure the open water of Raft to Nowhere, outsmart the traps of Temple of the Wretched or face what boarded your ship in Space Terror — then take on the two newest, Nightmare on the Coast and Zone of the Unknown. Dress your character, make the call and live with the consequences.

Questions
Survival Stories questions, answered
Is Survival Stories a game or a book?
Both, in the way visual novels are: you read a survival scenario and make the calls that branch it. Different choices lead to different endings.
How many stories are there?
Six scenarios at present: a plane crash in Lost Horizons, open water in Raft to Nowhere, the traps of Temple of the Wretched, a boarded ship in Space Terror, and two added in the latest update — Nightmare on the Coast and Zone of the Unknown. We add new novels over time, so the store listing is the current word.
Do my choices really change anything?
Yes — the paths branch and the endings differ. That is the whole mechanic.
Is Survival Stories free?
It is free to download from the App Store and Google Play. The listing also shows in-app purchases and ads.
What do I need to play Survival Stories?
It runs on iPhone and iPad running iOS 13.0 or later and on Android devices through Google Play.
Can I play Survival Stories on iPad?
Yes. The App Store lists it as compatible with iPad — it runs on iPadOS 13.0 or later, with the same download from the same App Store page.
What age rating does Survival Stories have?
The stores rate it 13+ on the App Store and Teen on Google Play. Ratings are set by the stores, not by us.
Is Survival Stories still being updated?
Yes — the most recent update on the official listings is dated 9 April 2026 (version 1.2.0 on iOS).
Who makes Survival Stories?
Survival Games Ltd, a mobile game studio registered in the United Kingdom. We develop and publish it ourselves on both stores — more about the studio.
