Main page

Welcome to the Interactive Fiction Project. The goal of this project is to create an interactive, choose-your-own adventure style decision maze, created and edited in an open source fashion, with wiki technology. The basics of wikitext are pretty easy to pick up. To create a new decision fork just include your decision path in double brackets, like this [[ ]]. Then click the new wikilink, and it will open up the new decision fork that you have created, which you can now fill in with content.

Rules

This is a community of creators, not just a game. Please feel free to edit pages to create new options, new decision forks, and to substantively add to existing decision forks. Please feel free to clean up grammar and spelling as well. Be bold with changes. If they don't work, anyone can revert the page to an older version using the history tab. You may read the content and play the game, but to edit content, please create an account, which requires only a username and password, not your address or anything that takes 5 minutes to fill out.
