Survival Stories: Novel Games
Interactive novelsEvery choice is a matter of survival. Visual survival novels where you don't just read the story — you drive it. A raft lost at sea, a deserted island, an ancient temple, a spaceship that isn't empty: every choice pulls you closer to rescue or to the abyss.
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
Four self-contained stories: a plane crash in Lost Horizons, open water in Raft to Nowhere, the traps of Temple of the Wretched and something aboard the ship in Space Terror.
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. Dress your character, make the call and live with the consequences.
