The Woods of a Thousand Tales

Think of Forevle like YouTube, but for interactive stories. YouTube is a platform where you watch videos made by other people. Forevle is a platform where you play stories made by other people. We provide the engine; our community provides the adventures. You can play a Horror story today, a Romance tomorrow, and a Sci-Fi epic next week - all in the same place!

It's a fusion of all three! Picture this: you're immersed in a novel, and the rain falling outside and the characters' breaths become your backdrop. Imagine you're in the middle of a movie, and instead of yelling at the screen, "Don't go in there!", you actually have the power to control the action. We call it "Interactive Fiction" - a story that waits for your input to move forward.

Absolutely! If you know how to tap a screen or click a mouse, you're already overqualified! There are no reflexes to test, no enemies to shoot, and no difficult puzzles to solve unless you want them. The only skill you need is empathy and the ability to make decisions. If you enjoy getting lost in a good book or binge-watching a drama, then you are in the right place!

No! Think of it like an interactive movie or audio drama. While there is text on screen, the experience is driven by voice acting, sound design, and visuals. You're here to have fun and play, not to study!

Yes, the story has a memory! We don't give you false choices. If you insult a character, they will stay angry. If you steal something, you will have it in your pocket later. If you are mean to a stranger in Chapter 1, they won't help you in Chapter 10. The story remembers everything you do, just like a real person would. Your path is really your own.

In traditional games, losing means you failed. In interactive fiction, a "bad" ending is just a tragedy, which is a valid form of storytelling! You might not save the prince, or you might fail the heist, but the story will conclude based on your actions. There is no "wrong" way to play, only different consequences.

It depends on the author. Some are short experiences meant for a 15-minute commute (Shorts), while others are very long and take hours or even days to play (Novels). However, because of the many paths a story can take, almost all stories can be played again to see what happens if you make different choices.

A fantastic mix of professional authors, indie game developers, and creative people just like you! Forevle is an open canvas, unlike streaming services that only show Hollywood productions. We are passionate about making sure that the next great story can be shared with the world, without being held back by the limitations of a publisher.

You should! Books are great. But books are a monologue: the author talking to you. Forevle is a dialogue: you talking back to the story. It activates a different part of your brain called "Active Recall." You aren't just absorbing information; you are analysing the situation and making a strategy.

Forevle is a User-Generated Content platform, meaning stories are written by the community. However, we use AI moderation to filter out hate speech and explicit content. Furthermore, every story has clear "Content Tags" (like PG-13, Horror, etc.) so you can see exactly what themes are inside before your child starts playing.

Actually, it’s the opposite. Passive screen time (like watching TikToks) puts the brain in a "vegetative state." Forevle requires Critical Thinking. To "survive" in our stories, you have to observe, comprehend context clues, and predict consequences. It builds literacy and empathy skills that passive video games do not.

No. Forevle is built on lightweight web technology. If your device can load a webpage and play a YouTube video, it can run Forevle beautifully. It works on old laptops, new tablets, and every smartphone in between.

No, and that's by design! Forevle is a web app. There is no App Store. No Downloads. Tap "Add to Home Screen" on your phone. This is an app. It looks and feels like an app, but it doesn't eat up your phone's storage.

Unfortunately, not at the moment. You need the internet to play. The benefit of this is that your progress is instantly synced to the cloud. This means you can start a story on your PC and finish it on your phone during your commute without missing a beat.

Zero coding. If you can type in a Google Doc, you can build a game on Forevle. You write the script: "The dragon roars." Our AI analyzes that sentence and suggests the roar sound effect and the dragon visual. You focus on the plot; we handle the production.

Yes. You are the author. You are simply using our "stage" to perform it.
