Choose Your Own Adventures

choice images by jayemouse

links to every cyoa i have made can be found here! use this to simulate rolling dice, if required

my cyoas will always be free to play, of course, but i would very much appreciate any amount of support in return for the things that i create. many of my cyoas take a lot of writing and a lot of work, and as long as you're not struggling yourself, even the smallest amount that you can offer would still mean a lot to me. i hope to make a lot of things that you'll enjoy. this is the main page for collecting jayemouse cyoas and canon lore into one place.

thank you! click here to return to the misc index

Frontier CYOAs

These stories all take place in a parallel dimension reminiscent of the American wild west.

Homestead CYOA - You move to the frontier, and are granted a plot of land that nobody can ever take from you. Learn about the local area, wildlife, and the events that go on in the area. Make choices about what you're going to farm, how you're going to live, and who you're going to make friends with along the way.
Included is 'Trials and Tribulations', an expansion set one year after the core adventure. It puts you in the role of the mediator in a number of local disputes. The expansion focuses less on the homesteading, and more on your potential adventures.

The Fury of Hell - Build your base, gather supplies, rescue survivors, and lay seige against the forces of darkness. You'll be fighting zombies, and worse monsters, in the same setting as the Homestead CYOA. It can be played entirely standalone, or as an expansion. There are one or two dice rolls, and you can use this page for that.
Partially inspired by the Man With A Harmonica musical track composed by Ennio Morricone.

Gullhaven - Move to an isolated town in the north and live out a cosy adventure. It's a bit less dangerous by default than Homestead CYOA, more urban, and with a strong maritime theme throughout.

Eitador CYOAs

These CYOAs follow major events and time periods in the fictional continent of 'Eitador'.

NO FUTURE (v1.3) - You wake up in a hyper-capitalist cyberpunk future. Make money, upgrade yourself through transhuman body augumentation, choose your allies, and decide what your role will be. It's 14k words total, featuring a lot of worldbuilding. It has character stats, so you'll need to keep track of a few different numbers as you play. [v1.1 Imgur Album (outdated!)]

DAYBREAK - Mech Warfare CYOA (v1.1) - In 2080, an intense war rages in Daybreak. You're chosen as a mech pilot, and sent out to try and change the direction of the fight. This CYOA lends itself to a variety of different builds, as you could choose different ways to upgrade your mech, augument yourself into a supersoldier, or even gain personal command of a small army.

Ace Assassin - Set in the 1970s, join the Brightfire Ministry of Intelligence as an elite assassin in a mission based CYOA that will take you all over the continent to eliminate targets and solve unique problems.

My Lady, My Liege (v1.0) - Become the lord of a small medieval town circa 1150. Decide its fate and decide your fortune by constructing buildings and passing laws. This CYOA features voice acting, a lot of background lore, and some pieces of original pixel art! [v1.0 Imgur Album (outdated!)]
Pixel Art Banner Maker! - You can design a banner for your town using this dress-up game.

Misc Mid-Length/ Long CYOAs

Pixie Hearts - This is a wish fulfilment fantasy with nature and cottagecore aesthetics. It's quite personal to the things that I want. You're granted powers and adventure by pixie magic, and you get to decide how it manifests!

A Black Rose - Choose from a list of stylish and thematic powers related to the aesthetic of dark academia.

The Clockmaker's Palace - Time-stop and chill as you are whisked away to a mysterious steampunk- inspired palace for a relaxing adventure.

Realms of Rebirth - After you die, you have a single chance to be reborn and tie up loose ends. You will have to choose a spirit realm to visit and complete the challenges of. If you succeed, you may come back to earth a better and more powerful person.

Dream Home CYOA - Build the home of your dreams! It's quick to play. Choose the location of your home, how it's designed, and what rooms you want it to include. There are very minor magic/ fantasy elements for some of the rooms.

The Smiths CYOA - Spend points to gain a number of powers or improvements to your life. The aesthetic of this CYOA is based on 'The Smiths', and the options are all inspired by lyrics from their songs.

The Horror Movie CYOA - Design a monster, and pick from horror movie tropes to come up with a story that you think is fun and imaginative! It's strongly inspired by movies of the 1980s, especially puppet horror movies and exploitation films. There are numbers on each option so that you can play it as RYOA if you prefer.

Frankenwaifu (18+) - An NSFW 'waifu builder' CYOA based on the movie 'Frankenhooker'. It's supposed to be silly, and take place in a kind of weird and sudden amoral delerium. This is a CYOA for adults only.

Sun & Sea (18+) - A lighthearted NSFW CYOA about building a nice trip to a beach themed Demiplane! Actually taking any of the NSFW options is entirely optional, but the images are very often lewd. This is a CYOA for adults only.

Short CYOAs

These CYOAs are small, single images, with one or two choices each. They're each playable in just a few minutes, making them good if you're low on time, or just want a quick introduction to the format. The first one, 'cosy cyoa', is the most upvoted post of all time on the r/makeyourchoice subreddit.
There's also one 'RYOA', or 'Roll Your Own Adventure'. You can use this page to simulate rolling dice.
