About the Story

Enlaya

A forgotten colony world cut off from the supplies of Earth, with no natural resources, and a hostile surrounding ecology, how will you survive?

The prison

Sentenced to a fifty year imprisonment for a crime you did not commit, your only goal is to escape its confinement.

Your choice matters

Every action you take defines an attribute and a potential choice later in the game. The story evolves basing on where you have been and what you've done, and the story moves on relentlessly.

How will you survive?

*Do note that the game will not be complete until version number hits 1.1, where the Prison will be considered as complete.

Not Bad, January 16, 2014

by Sharpe (Playing Kerkerkruip, the IF Roguelike)

Though short and unfinished, Enlaya: The Prison isn't too bad of a CYOA. It's refreshing to see a work of Twine with plenty of "agency"—choices that have an affect on the game. Unfortunately, many Twine works can't be called games (or even interactive) as they are completely linear flash fictions. Thankfully, that ailment doesn't afflict Enlaya.

The writing is adequate, good at parts and less so in others, and the presentation isn't quite the (awful) stock ("Sugarcane") format that comes with Twine. The author at least increased the font size so that it was legible. Had the author not made that consideration, I probably wouldn't have bothered straining my eyes to play this game.

Despite the decent writing and abundance of choice, I found it hard to grant a three-star rating due to its rough, unfinished shape. If I could have given it 2.5 stars, I would have done so. However, I chose to round up since fun and re-playability are more important than length in my opinion.

It was certainly worth the five minutes or so that it took to play through it twice.

Great Start, February 4, 2014

by Sushisamayomama

Very impressed with "Enlaya Chapter 1: The Prison" (Day One) so far. I know I can't offer much insight, as I'm only recently deciding that I would like to attempt creating my own video game. Your work was featured on the Twine's featured samples. There isn't much but being the first sample I've looked at so far, I was really impressed with the writing. I only wished there was more and will be looking forward to your progress! :)
