Silverworld is such a unique story with fantastic worldbuilding; a mix of prehistoric fantasy with both tech and magic. There is a lot going on: insect people, robots, time travel, steampunk alternate Byzantine, etc. yet it all makes sense while playing because everything fits naturally into the world rather than feeling like random gimmicks thrown in for the sake of it. The whole thing is bizarre, but in a good way. The replay value is amazing. There are many ways to achieve (or fail) our goals, and choices have impact both on the endings as well as on the paths leading there. The characters are solid, and the writing strikes a nice balance in making them always present and well-defined while keeping the unique world and its challenges at the center of the story. It's definitely a niche setting, and I wasn't sure about it at first, but it's so inventive and well-crafted that I'd honestly recommend it to anyone no matter your preferred genre.

About This Game
In a world of trackless jungles, colossal beasts, and cruel pre-human civilizations, you must survive the past if you want to save the future! You were only meant to guard the laboratory, but when a treacherous power cripples Doctor Sabbatine's time machine, you're left stranded! Face the savage inhabitants of Silverworld and build your own civilization—or plunder the past and return home unimaginably rich!
Silverworld is a 560,000-word interactive time-travel fantasy novel by Kyle Marquis, where your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
You need allies to survive, but who can you trust? The locals may have already betrayed you to appease their enemies. The empress back home has ordered you to plunder this new world. Your friend survived the crash only for the jungle to infect him, transforming him into something inhuman. And the expedition's chief adviser has imprisoned the Icons—architects of the universe, masters of time—and fled to build his own civilization.
Can you rebuild Doctor Sabbatine's time machine and return home? You must protect your timeline, but at what cost? And after leading the people of Silverworld, will you even want to?
You can save the future…if you can survive the past.
