Is this meant to be a game? I am unable to type my own prompt, the site is filling its own prompt in and then requesting that I press enter to allow it to do so again. I figured there was an intro but the self-play is more and more elaborate without handing it over to the player.

I don't think so. I think that's basically the only interaction; it's just a medium for telling a story

I think it's a short story with a slow-motion text reader

It's a choose your own adventure game, you have to get through the exposition
