Free story-based game
My World Still Burns is a free, text-based story game based on the popular movie Promare, a Japanese anime. Lio Fotia, previously leader of the Mad Burnish, is trying to live a new life, avoiding the mistakes of his past. He wants to make the most incredible meal possible for his anniversary with the passionate and impulsive Galo Thymos.
My World Still Burns is, of course, fan fiction, and the story of the game doesn’t relate to the actual events of the movie. Be warned that, although it’s unrelated, it does contain spoilers for the movie itself. Make sure to watch it before playing this, if you haven’t already. If you like text games, you can try GodAI and Wednesday.
There isn’t much to this game in terms of gameplay. It’s mostly just dialogue and story. There are over 9,000 words of dialogue in this fanfiction which can take you anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour to get through.
