From what I've seen, it doesn't seem like AI is very good at keeping track of events in a way that makes a logical narrative. I tried "The Hobbit" and it started with me having tea with Gandalf the wizard. There was a knock at the front door so I opened it and outside was Gandalf the wizard!
That said, the way you have done it means it is roughly unique each time.
It's a pretty cool proof of concept. I did run into some weirdness with it right away when trying the Harry Potter book. The app kept switching between 2nd and 3rd person for Harry. The main thing for me, though, was the feeling of emptiness I got while playing. I love text adventures, having grown up with Infocom games. The thing about them is that you can feel the choices made by the writer / programmer, just like…
Freedom is valuable in games, especially text adventure games. And an LLM is a powerful way to give the player freedom, since it can respond to almost anything. But for games to shine they also need carefully considered constraints - when the player bounces off constraints they start to understand how the game's world and systems function, which lets them build a mental model and be able to start thinking the same wa…
I haven't played with the most state of the art parsers that are available right now, so I wonder how large the gap is between a great parser and using an LLM to process user input.

of course, it didnt have context lengthy enough for that I mean human sometimes forgot about the state inside the game often
A context of a few things characters? No, it definitely does. Beyond that... Would you forget that the guy you were having tea with was sitting in your living room? Anyone I know would definitely go "how the hell are you outside" not "nice to see you today".
My thoughts: 1. Would be great to have a loader for both when I input responses and game start. 2. Got this error after I sent input (it's understandable :), since it would be getting good traction) "An error occurred while generating the story: Rate limit exceeded for shared resources. Please try again in 1 seconds, or provide your own API key in settings.. Please try again. If the problem persists, you may need to start a new game." 3. The story feels lackluster without Visuals. Even text based visuals or emojis we use in chat will be good to have. 4. Would be great if instead of chat we had dialogue selector on top of your character or story. 5. Can also change the background of the page based on book and settings selected.
Great work. Love the idea <3
Honestly a strong start but I got rate limited. Very cool idea!

I've tried quite some models and so far I've only seen two that are good at keeping continuity: Gemini 2.5 Pro and Sonnet 3.7 (both with reasoning on). These two are also exceptionally good[0] at adding plot twists that aren't in the prompt.
[0]: by "my expectation of LLM" standard, not by the standard of bestseller genre fiction.

You're making a false assumption that other people cannot enjoy what you're talking about unless they've experienced it themselves. If one has good storytelling skills and a solid theory of mind (concern for the listener), almost anything can be interesting. Even dreams. I also disagree with your conclusion that an activity only has a point if discussed with others. A good deal of the best experiences in my life are…
I neither made this assumption nor the conclusion.
