Quest for Metanarratives

If I had a nickel for every time I got stuck in a narrative loop... I’d be rich enough to pay someone else to do this!

In 'Quest for Metanarratives', players step into the shoes of a hapless character, **Narran**—a self-aware hero who discovers they exist within a text-based game. As Narran, you must journey through a series of increasingly ludicrous scenarios that often break the fourth wall. Your choices dictate not just the fate of Narran but the very structure of the game world itself. Meet quirky NPCs who are aware they are characters, face off against genre conventions trying to push you on a predetermined path, and explore meta-commentary on storytelling, choice, and player agency. Will you help Narran achieve true autonomy, or will you inadvertently trap them in a loop of their own design? Expect twists, humor, and plenty of dramatic situations that make you question the nature of adventure.
