The Resonance · Text adventures

Stories paced like real time, on a wrist or in a pocket.

Welcome to The Resonance: a fractured world threaded by music. Each game in the series is a small, complete story you live alongside, not through. The first entry, Echoes: Margins, is out now.

Echoes: Margins, a wrist-first text adventure: a stranger appears at the margins of the Tanpura outpost.

Currently playable

Echoes: Margins

Five days arrive on your wrist or your phone, paced across real time. You play as Sev, a maintenance worker in an outpost called Tanpura. Sev's companion Spark, Shruti, has been gone for two years. A stranger appears at the margins, and you decide how Sev meets them.

The world

Five regions, one fractured song.

The Resonance is a surreal world recovering from the Discordance, a catastrophe that broke the music threading it together. Each region is anchored in a real-world musical tradition; humans live alongside companion beings called Sparks who grow, bond, and leave Echoes behind.
