“The northern ‘wall’ of the room is a shimmering curtain of light. In the center of the room is a large stone cube, about 10 feet on a side. Engraved on the side of the cube is some lettering.” -- Zork 2 Walk through here to enter the IF Archive. If you are in an FTP mood, you can also access these files at ftp.ifarchive.org.

But in all that time the interactive component has always involved text more than images. Framed is going to change that. Framed is a project by Australia-based Loveshack Entertainment that puts the player in the role of a narrator. Unlike past interactive fiction that lets the reader make choices, in Framed creates a narrative by rearranging a set of panels from a comic. Each panel represents a part of a scene, and by changing the order one can change the events and create a new outcome.
