Text-based Interactive Fiction games recommendations from Itch.io - literature.cafe
This is a list of text-based IF’s (Interactive Fiction) that I and another user
from itch.io [http://itch.io], xSai
[https://itch.io/profile/xsaikoticx] or Bladed-Barbwire on Discord, made on
itch.io, and I thought I’d share this here with you guys in case anyone is
interested. All the credit goes to xSai for coming up with the idea. Also, note
that, neither I nor xSai own the rights to any of these IF’s; we are just
recommending them to people as we believe they deserve more recognition and
people might actually end up enjoying them. The list was made on itch.io and so,
unfortunately, will have to be accessed from there for anyone wanting to access
them from here. The list also had to be split into separate parts as we ran out
of characters to use. All the IF’s are completely text-based, a few using some
visuals and/or images, but none of them are full Visual Novels. Almost all of
the IF’s are made in Twine, with a few being made in ChoiceScript, Ren’py, or
some other engine. Most of the IF’s are free-to-play, some are pay-to-play, and
some are free until they’re completed and/or a price is decided. Some of the
IF’s have extra DLC’s or bonus side content on their itch.io page or on the
author’s patreon, which are either free-to-play or pay-to-play. Most of the IF’s
can be played in a browser (works best in the itch.io app, Chrome, Firefox and
some other browsers. Not guaranteed to work in every browser) with some also
having a download option, but there are some IF’s that only have a download
option and no browser one. Most of the IF’s can be played on PC and mobile, but
some are not compatible for mobile. A lot of the IF’s are also unfinished WIP’s
(Work In Progress); some of them are already completed, close to completion,
just started, or may have been discontinued. Some of the links of the IF’s also
don’t work, stop working for a while before working again, or ask for a password
to access; perhaps due to being discontinued, shut down for maintenance, or for
some other reason. We will continue to keep updating the list as we find more
IF’s. We also have a discord server, a lemmy community, a subreddit, a tumblr
blog, and a cohost page dedicated just for this. If you, or anyone else have any
IF’s you want to recommend, feel free to share them on here, the three itch.io
topics, the discord server, the subreddit, the tumblr blog, or the cohost
page (They have to be text-based IF’s from itch.io and need to have at least
some kind of interactivity. IF’s from other sites, Visual Novels, or some other
type of game will not be accepted). Or if you just want to talk, or ask me for
some suggestions on which IF’s to try, then feel free to do that as well.
Anyway, thank you for your time, and I hope you have a good day, folks. Cheers!
