Winterstrike

[ Play online ]

Cold guns. Starship carcasses. And now, you.

A StoryNexus game in the tradition of Echo Bazaar.

NOTE (2026-01-17)
I’ve been aware for nigh on a decade that StoryNexus would eventually be sunsetted. I have copies of the game data and had been planning to refactor/release with Failbetter Games’ likely blessing in the nebulous future; but I’m also dealing with family/work/health stressors before we even get into US/world politics. I would ask that people NOT contact me (further) about obtaining/releasing source code/data because I don’t have the energy to juggle this right now. There are a lot of great (even free) narrative games out there (try The Interactive Fiction Database for starters) – I am sure something will scratch the itch.

Cutting Corners

Reactor Magazine (March 18, 2026)
In other Hausser bases, newly reassigned personnel must have been staring at their own ships, suppressing their qualms about the idea that a human might pilot them.
