Novel Story

Novel Story is a single-player role playing game about the history of a novel, its story, its adaptations, its influences. You'll select a character (a fan, academic, biographer, etc.) who is tracing the history of the novel and answer prompts to define the novel's story and themes, as well as publishers, adaptations, and more. By the end you'll have a unique story changed by many characters and through decades of time. Play to create a unique story, or to seed your fictional world with a ubiquitous piece of fiction adopted into several forms of media.
