Hidden Door is an interactive storytelling platform that places you inside well-known fictional worlds from classic novels to licensed stories where you co-create narrative adventures with others and navigate dynamic plotlines shaped by your choices and in-game mechanics.
Hidden Door blends narrative play and community interaction by letting fans step into familiar fictional universes and experience them as playable stories. Unlike static text adventures or typical story apps, Hidden Door presents narrative worlds with characters, situations, and rules drawn from established works whether public-domain classics like The Wizard of Oz or licensed IP such as The Crow and invites players to craft their own journeys within these settings. Players begin by choosing a world, designing a character defined by traits and backstory, and then participating in evolving scenes where choices matter. The system uses structured narrative logic and game-style elements (like outcome rolls and collectible story cards) to ensure decisions influence the progression and feel of the tale, maintaining consistency and immersion rather than letting the experience drift into disjointed or unrelated threads. Hidden Door’s approach creates a shared space where fans, readers, and creators can explore countless parallel adventures, interact socially, and reflect on how different choices reshape familiar plots. It also partners with authors and rights holders to bring their worlds to life responsibly, offering insights into player engagement and revenue share opportunities.
