About

Made by Hiro Protagonist

Neverending Narratives is my home for browser RPGs, fantasy novels and LitRPG audiobooks. Adventurer is the complete game. Expeditions is my current project, with a playable opening chapter and more story on the way.

Tell me what you enjoyed, what confused you and where the game broke. That feedback helps me decide what to fix next. If you want to support the work, the books and the Patreon above are the best ways.
