Your Scenario

Your desires come to life, one choice at a time

Interactive psychological thrillers

The knot in the stomach, the detail that doesn't add up, the threat you can't quite name. The AI builds the tension, you choose how to live through it.

The psychological thriller is a genre of atmosphere. No explosions: unease, mounting pressure, a character who no longer knows whom to trust. Your Scenario holds this register very well because the AI can install a diffuse tension over the long haul without ever defusing it with a twist that comes too soon.

You set up the opening situation (an anonymous email, a neighbour acting strangely, a husband who comes home too late) and the AI ratchets up the pressure chapter after chapter. The clues pile up, the choices grow more dangerous. You decide when the character cracks, when they act, when they doubt.

A locked room, the city at night, a familiar place turned hostile: the setting does half the work. The protagonist always has something to lose — that's what makes every decision visceral.

The sub-styles of the genre

So many starting points — the AI adapts to whichever one you pick.

Locked room

An isolated house, a building cut off from the world, a stalled train. The space shrinks, the threat remains.

The manipulator

Someone who's been pulling the strings from the start. A friend, a partner, a therapist. You understand too late — or exactly in time.

Paranoia and doubt

The character no longer knows whether what they see is real. Those around them think they're mad. The evidence keeps disappearing.

Stalking

Someone works their way into the protagonist's life. Anonymous, unhurried, methodical.

The past resurfaces

A buried secret comes back up. An old identity, a youthful mistake, a wrong that someone hasn't forgotten.

Solo Mode

Sample opening chapters.

The AI writes in the first person, building on every choice you've made so far.

The parcel

You come home from work. In front of your door, a parcel. No sender, no shipping label, just your name written in black marker. You don't remember ordering anything. There's a sticky note on it: "Open me when you're alone."

1Bring it inside and open it right away 2Leave it outside and call the police 3Check the building's cameras first

Duo Mode

Live this genre with someone.

Two protagonists, two players. Each one chooses on their turn; the text unfolds accordingly. Here's how a typical exchange plays out.

The parcel sits on Vincent's table. No sender. Just his name. Claire offered to come over — she's the only one he's told about the case.

Vincent
  • Open the parcel in silence — check there's no trap
  • Wait for Claire before touching anything
  • Go out, look for whoever left it

Inside: a photo, a USB stick, a note. "You know who." Claire has just arrived; she looks over Vincent's shoulder. Her eyes linger on the photo longer than they should.

Claire
  • Feign surprise, listen to her
  • Ask her directly what she recognises
  • Step away, call the contact immediately

Claire hesitates. "We need to talk, but not here." Vincent has his hand on the phone. Down in the street, a car has just stopped in front of the building.

Vincent Vincent's turn to play…
  • Leave by the service stairs
  • Call the contact now, in front of her
  • Ask her to empty her pockets

Frequently asked questions

Does the tension really hold over time?

Yes. The AI is trained to avoid the trap of the too-early twist — the tension climbs gradually, the clues accumulate. Across twenty chapters, you're far from the slasher that kills everyone off in the third act.

Is this a text-based role-playing game?

Yes. Your Scenario is a text role-playing game (RP) where the AI handles the narration and the characters in real time. You decide, it writes. Unlike a classic message-based RP, every chapter is built around your choices and remembers everything that came before.

How does it actually work?

You describe in a few words the beginning of the story you have in mind. The AI writes the first chapter and offers you three choices to steer what comes next. With each choice, a new chapter is written, taking into account everything decided so far. You can also write your own action freely.

Is it free?

Yes. You get free credits when you sign up, and each chapter costs a few credits. Paid plans are available for heavy use.

Are my stories private?

Yes. Your scenarios belong to you. You can share them via a link if you want to; otherwise they stay strictly private.
