I doesn't exist - a modern text adventure

I Doesn’t Exist takes the fun of classic text-based adventure games, and adds a new dimension with beautiful, handcrafted pixel art that can be downloaded for PC. Though the game can be enjoyed in one sitting, repeat playthroughs are encouraged…

Overview of I doesn't exist - a modern text adventure

The game's central conceit is that the player character does not exist. You play as a burgeoning consciousness struggling to define itself within a fragmented digital landscape. The narrative is highly introspective, with your choices directly influencing not just the plot, but also the very fabric of your "being."

As you navigate the game, you'll encounter entities that represent different facets of existence, memory, and perception, each offering cryptic clues or challenging your burgeoning sense of self.

Gameplay Mechanics

While it retains the core of text adventures, "I Don't Exist" introduces several modern twists:

Dynamic Language System

The game adjusts its prose and descriptions based on your choices and the state of your "existence." If you choose to embrace chaos, the text might become more fragmented and surreal; if you seek order, it could become more structured and logical.

"Consciousness" Meter

Instead of health or stamina, you manage a "Consciousness" meter. Certain actions or disclosures can finish or replenish it, impacting your ability to sense and interact with the game world.

Abstract Puzzles

Puzzles are less about finding keys and more about conceptual understanding. You might need to logically deconstruct a philosophical paradox, solve abstract imagery, or make a difficult moral decision that shapes your character's personality.

Non-Linear Progression

While there's an overarching narrative, the game encourages exploration of different existential paths. Multiple endings are defined not just by final choices, but by the cumulative "identity" you've built throughout the game.

Minimalist Interface

The interface is clean and emphasizes the text. There are no distracting graphics, allowing players to immerse themselves in the linguistic world fully.
