An adventure game/interactive story in Twine, "Layers" puts you in the shoes of a disaffected member of a creepy cult. You need to get free and save your fellow victims. In the process, you discover a way to shift between different planes of existence.
Note: in a few cases, the commands may continue below the bottom of the screen. If it looks like anything is missing, just scroll down.
It is possible to die (though in most cases, you need to do something rash for that to happen). However, it is possible to restart from significant points in the game without needing to replay the entire thing. It's impossible to render the game unwinnable (except by insta-death), but there are a few different paths to victory.
Inspirations:
*the works of Porpentine, especially "The Sky in the Room" and "Ultra Business Tycoon III"
*"Eversion"
