About

A mental journey across a surreal backdrop, grappling with mysteries that cannot be solved to unlock profound riddles about identity: What is your essence? What is mine?

Tell Me Your Answers to Questions That Don’t Have One

There is a mysterious creature donning a flower wreath, and it only refers to itself as I.

I will ask you questions, and the conversation will progress based on your answers.

“What would you do if you could meet your past self?”

“If you could buy other people’s experiences with money, would you?”

A few of the queries might be questions you’ve pondered before. Others could guide you towards uncharted territories within your thoughts.

There is no right answer. What matters is what you believe.

After answering a question, you will be shown everyone else’s answers.

How many chose as you did? And why did the others choose differently?

Dive into your own mind as you try to glance at someone else’s.

Lights and Doors for Choices, Within the Warm Embrace of Loneliness

Every door is connected to an answer. Go through the one you chose.

As I navigate through this vivid portrayal, my decisions shape the environment around me. It’s like embarking on a journey within my very own mindscape.

Maybe, after you’ve gone through enough doors, you will realize this world’s secrets.

Questions, Answer, and What Comes of Them

A variety of queries are coming your way. Some pertain to everyday foods, others to weighty life-and-death issues. Regardless, there’s often no simple solution or definitive response.

You might wonder: why am I being asked these things in the first place?

Should you discern the underlying cause for all those questions, you might decide to confront the truth concealed within that seemingly innocent doughnut hole.

However, it’s entirely up to you how far you proceed. Keep in mind that venturing too far may mean you might not be able to return to the surface safely.

Characters

There are just two characters: You and I.

I – A creature that loves talking, but remains vanishing and mysterious. “I would like to ask you some questions.”
You – The choices you will take belong to you, as they come from your own memories and experiences.
