"textContent": "A text-based mobile game where you play as yourself, and you interact with the protagonist through some text interface. Lifeline did this really well, with a sci-fi story line where you help Taylor navigate challenges. The format is compelling and perfect for a big twist at the end.\n\nPossible premises:\n\n- The protagonist is a WW2 spy. You help them navigate a very high-stakes mission. Decisions threaten to expose them for the spy they are.\n- The protagonist wakes up in a very dark room with no memory of how they got there. They have to escape. Their journey uncovers the dark realities of the person or people who took them.",
