DESCRIPTION

It's night in the dead of winter. Snow is falling heavily. You're driving along a lonely mountain road when you see the headlights of an oncoming car. Obligingly you dim your headlights but, as you pass the car and try to raise the beam again, the handle snaps off the steering column. Your world is plunged into darkness and your automobile careens to a halt off the road.

During the next few hours you will hear five stories — yours is the sixth. The outcome of your story depends on what you make of the five stories that you hear.

Six Stories is a graphics and sound enhanced text-based adventure game. Each character has his or her own voice actor to deliver the character's story and there's a narrator's voice as well. You can opt to play the game with sound, in which case you'll see still images as the voice actors deliver their lines. If you have the graphics turned on, the game will display a picture of whatever item you examine along with its description.

You can also play the game in text only format with no graphics with the character's lines printed on screen. If you get stuck, you can refer to the game's explicit walkthrough or ask the game whether items are important to the story or are simply red herrings. ~ Kyle Knight, All Game Guide
