An immersive text-based journey that inspires people towards self-discovery and emotional maturity. Have you ever felt lost? Don’t know what you want? Do you think you really know yourself? Feel life again from a new perspective.

I Meet Myself is an original text-based story with thought provoking elements. The story aims to provide an experiential emotional journey (rather than being overly informative), while encouraging one to philosophise about one’s meaning in life in an open, patient and compassionate manner.

The story starts off with an amnesiac main character who gradually learns of the world within and without. Similarly, this relates to ourselves when we start on our journey of rediscovering ourselves. Read, absorb, relate, question and grow with the main character that encounters the many beliefs and quirks of others and within oneself.

Main features:
- Thought provoking story
- Multiple choices
- Multiple scenarios
- Ambient background music
- Minimalistic design
- Nudging questions
- Autosave feature

Note: This app focus on the introspective aspect of the interactive story rather than the gameplay aspect. The story is largely linear with minor maneuvers and most choices and input are for the user's self-reflection and experience. However, most chapters do have multiple endings.

FAQ
1. Will the story be translated into Portuguese (and other languages)?
Thank you for your interest in the story. We hear your requests and do have plans to translate it into multiple languages (including Portuguese). As of now, we are looking at releasing Chapter 6 before we consider tackling the translations next. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

2. Do my choices or input affect the story?
Yes and no. On one hand, the story is largely linear with minor maneuvers and most choices and input are for the user's self-reflection and experience. On the other hand, most chapters do have multiple endings, and the choices made can affect how the story progresses.

Ratings and reviews

It's a beautifully crafted app with very deep, meaningful, and nearly poetic storytelling. The questions are thought-provoking and raw along with its passages. However, if the progress could be saved as a file or a slot rather than screen-shotting each review, it would be more convenient. Additionally, the lack of access to the fifth chapter is both baffling and disappointing particularly when there was no indication prior to downloading that the fifth chapter required an upgrade to Pro.

Don't get me wrong, the idea of the game is amazing and very self-invloving but I got bored fairly quickly. Having gone through many of the thought processes myself, the thought processes of the character seem a bit too...how should I put it, fickle from moment to moment. Also, there isn't much interaction from the user which I thibk draws away from the game. I like things that I can interact with and see the different reactions to things (such as puzzles that test mental health or something).

An interesting concept for sure and for the first 20 minutes this game had my attention. But predictivly the story played out as you can only choose from a limited option of responses, and after choosing a response and a brief narrative, you're left to choose from what's left of the other responses. And this plays out over every story as the game directs you where to go, what to read, and ultimately end up at the same ending regardless of decision choices. What's the drive to truly play?
