Twisty Android Interactive Fiction

Text adventures and interactive fiction, despite what everyone else might tell you, will never die. Not as long as people care for stories and enjoy playing around with text. Not as long as Infocom, Level 9 and Magnetic Scrolls are remembered and definitely not as long as the vibrant, modern interactive fiction community keeps creating dozens of excellent new games.

What's more, you can enjoy the world of text adventuring on your Android phone too with the help of the brilliant Twisty app. It is absolutely free, comes bundled with one of the best horror adventures I've ever played and supports everything from Infocom's classics to modern day freebies. Get it over at the Android Market

  1. As a fan of IF, I am trying to bring the genera to education using Quest. Alex Warren at textadventures.co.uk is currently offering his platform as Open Source, and always looking for support. With its first title (also free) on iOS and Android, a mention / review would be very much appreciated.

  2. Thank you so much for the heads up. I'll definitely blog it. Could you please provide me with a link to this particular game too?

    Thank you!
