Hi there!
Lovely forum you've got here. I have a question for you more experienced Twine writers/readers: have you seen Twine used to tell ostensibly non-fictional stories? Or, perhaps, semi-fictional stories? History?
I'm just starting work on my first Twine story, which is historically inspired and predominantly based on fact. I'd love to be pointed in the direction of other stories that have attempted this. And, if you've ever written a story like this, do you have any thoughts on the process? Did it work? Did you find a way to reconcile a "true story" with a branching narrative structure?
Looking forward to hearing people's thoughts.

Alternatively you could present a historical experience but through different perspectives, and allow the reader to switch to different viewpoints to explore different nuances. They wouldn't have as much agency in such a story though, so I think the what if scenarios would be more fun.
