Discovery and Exploration

Trigaea Introduction

Trigaea by RynGM is a Twine based science fiction adventure game set in the far future. The user plays as someone who wakes up on a foreign planet with no memories, and only has an artificially intelligent computer as a companion. This game is based off of traditional exploration/adventure games, however instead of being first or third person POV games, it is text based. The game is very progress focused, and you can “die” multiple times without losing. The most important aspect of the game are the daily explorations out into the barren wasteland to find resources, ruins, and discover what the player is doing on the planet in the first place. Eventually, the player discovers that they are a superhuman with a special chip called a “Rosetta” that allows them to be immortal, and upgrade themselves by using chips found across the planet. 

Exploration and discovery play important roles in this game, and take multiple different forms. One such form is self-discovery, which in this game is rather overt. One of the main plot points is to discover who the player is, where they came from, and what they need to do. Exploration of the planet is also part of the main plot line, contributing to the experience of the game.
