CLUSTER INTERACTIVE-FICTION-NOVELS · 8 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2018-03-27

Interactive fiction creation platforms

This cluster spans tools and platforms for creating, playing, and co-writing interactive fiction and text-based narrative games, from mobile libraries of branching stories to desktop authoring editors and collaborative AI writing spaces. The dated history before the index is thin and irregular—nine entries scattered across 2014–2026 with no consistent trend, often several years apart. On traction, storied leads with a single star, while story-weaver and bydebut trail at zero stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 8 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
