Castle, Forest, Island, Sea

From bickering birds to scary monsters, choose your quest and find your way out of the castle in our philosophy interactive.

There are nine chapters exploring key questions in philosophy and it will take approximately 30-60 minutes to complete your adventure. As you navigate through the story, the game will build up an idea of how you feel about these questions, and at the end of the game you'll receive an analysis of your choices and a map of how your opinions compare to different philosophers through the ages.
