Romance, dark fantasy, sci-fi thrillers, anime fan fiction — every cover is a door into a new story world. Tap any title to take a closer look.

How it works

From curiosity to your first choice in under a minute.

Step 1

Browse the catalog

Explore trending titles, new releases, and hidden gems across romance, fantasy, sci-fi, and fan-fiction genres.

Step 2

Choose your story

Each game has its own world, characters, and choices. Read the premise, check the genre, and pick what sparks your curiosity.

Step 3

Play and shape the narrative

Make choices that matter. Every decision branches the story in a new direction — your playthrough is yours alone.

Three ways to play

Different formats for different moods. Pick the one that fits your moment.

Sims

Scenario-driven interactive experiences. Step into a situation — a reality-TV house, a fantasy court, a space station — and see where your choices lead.

Stories

Longer-form interactive narratives with branching plots. Think choose-your-own-adventure novels with character depth and real consequences.

Moments

Short, focused narrative experiences. A single scene, a critical choice, a what-if scenario — perfect for a quick play session.

Publish your stories

YamStudio is built for independent creators. Write an interactive romance, a fantasy branching narrative, or a fan-fiction scenario — then publish it to a catalog where players are already looking for their next story.

  • Reach players through trending feeds and discovery
  • Track play counts and engagement on your titles
  • Publish in any format: Sims, Stories, or Moments
