Made with Twine 2 & SugarCube
SugarCube (v2.0.0-beta.4)
Someone asked for something like this a few days ago and couldn't find the post again. I did something like it today, so here you go.
This is like the game Clue or the video game Heavy Rain (If you have a PS3 and didnt play it, you need to. It is interactive fiction as well)
where you can name the Killer and the location of the murder / victim: In this case the PC can figure out who the is Killer and not where the victim is or vice versa. So, there are 4 outcomes
Killer gets away, victim dies
Killer gets away, victim saved
Killer caught, victim dies
Killer caught, victim saved
I have links between the 4 passages too, but you get the point.
