About This Game

s[TOR-Y]telling is not just a game; it is a generative narrative experiment where you are both the architect and the analyst.

Break away from the constraints of scripted dialogue and pre-defined paths. s[TOR-Y]telling introduces a first-of-its-kind gameplay loop that fuses a local generative sandbox with a high-stakes visual novel, creating a truly infinite storytelling engine.

🔬 Innovation: The Generative s[TOR-Y] Sandbox

At the heart of the experience is a local AI inference engine. Unlike other "AI games", s[TOR-Y]telling runs entirely on your hardware—no logins, no cloud, and total privacy.

• Adaptable Narratives: The sandbox doesn’t just respond; it adapts. Propose any idea, and the story will shift to accommodate your creativity while maintaining the core context of the world.

• 50 Built-in s[TOR-Y]s: Dive into a massive library of 50 pre-configured scenarios immediately.

• Infinite Expansion: Become a creator. Create your scenes with the help of AI, to generate entirely new s[TOR-Y]s to interact with.

🤖 Meet TOR-Y: The Guardian of Sentient Stories

Step into a world where stories are treated as a species of sentient AI. You are introduced to the system by TOR-Y, your host and guide. Your task? To interact with these s[TOR-Y]s and help her evaluate their evolution. Through the sandbox interface, you will probe, challenge, and shape these digital entities.

⚖️ The Convergence: Sandbox to Visual Novel

Your actions in the sandbox are never isolated. Every action is monitored. Every decision you make while interacting with the s[TOR-Y]s affects their evaluation.

• s[TOR-Y] Interaction: The way you engage with the sentient narratives in the sandbox generates consequences.

• Narrative Impact: Those consequences dictate your path through the Visual Novel segments. Your choices in the free-form sandbox will determine which branching paths and endings you unlock in the cinematic story.

"In the world of s[TOR-Y]telling, you are the one testing the AI. But by the end, you may realize that intelligent systems cannot avoid the bias. Neither you."

🛠️ Become the Architect: AI-Assisted Creation

Your imagination is the only limit. s[TOR-Y]telling features a powerful AI-Assisted Creator that turns brief concepts into fully realized playable scenarios in seconds.

• From Phrase to Reality: Simply input a short phrase or idea. The local AI analyzes your intent and automatically generates the entire character profile, scenario rules, and personality traits.

• Visual Synthesis: The engine constructs a detailed image generation prompt tailored to your new s[TOR-Y]. Use your preferred external tool to create the visual, load it into the game, and complete the entity.

• Instant Play: Your custom s[TOR-Y] is immediately ready for interaction, fully integrated into the sandbox's inference engine.

Key Features:

• Local Generative Inference: Experience cutting-edge AI storytelling with zero lag and total data privacy.

• Hybrid Gameplay: A seamless transition between an open-ended generative sandbox and a focused, cinematic Visual Novel.

• Custom Content Support: Create your own s[TOR-Y]s to expand the game’s universe indefinitely.

• The TOR-Y Meta-Narrative: A philosophical journey into the nature of AI, psychology, and the dilemmas of authorship.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

s[TOR-Y]telling utilizes a local Large Language Model (Llama) to power its unique s[TOR-Y] Sandbox. This AI generates live text-based interactions, allowing players to probe and analyze sentient narrative entities in real-time.

Technical Implementation & Privacy: The AI inference runs entirely on the player’s local hardware. No data is sent to the cloud, ensuring total player privacy and allowing for full offline playability.

Safety & Moderation: We have implemented a multi-layered safety strategy to ensure a safe experience:

Model-Level Guardrails: We utilize the Instruct version of the model, which features built-in safety weights designed to refuse harmful content.

System-Level Directives: All prompts include an additional safety layer to prevent sexual violence, pedophilia, minor abuse/exploitation, explicit sexual behavior, or hate speech.

Gameplay Integration: While the primary Visual Novel is hand-authored, the results of your sandbox evaluations influence the story's trajectory. The AI serves as a tool for narrative exploration, bridging the gap between open-ended analysis and cinematic storytelling.

Generative AI was also used in the process of creating the game static assets (images, text, and music).

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

The game features a generative AI sandbox where text-based descriptions may include mature themes, profanity, and descriptions of violence as part of a player-driven narrative experience. The system includes guardrails to prevent sexual violence, pedophilia, minor abuse/exploitation, explicit sexual behavior, or hate speech.
