Three Roommates

World is ready — start right away. Each move costs $0.01, first ten free.
What is this world
2025, a bedroom district of a big Russian city, a three-room flat in a Khrushchev-era block, rented out dirt cheap. The landlady, Aunt Sveta from the next stairwell, didn't say a word about the house's internal laws, and they're written here in blood and cheap beer.
At stake: Nobody told you the last room goes to whoever takes on the shared schedule, and tomorrow morning Lida is coming to inspect, while you haven't even unpacked your boxes.
Who awaits you here
Everyone has their own interest in you. Their attitude shifts based on your actions, and you can see it on a scale right in the game.
cold and methodical, says little, but every word hits the mark, as if she's building a file on everyone who crosses the threshold
Wants from you: for you not to mess with her cleaning schedule and not to touch her things in the fridge
loud and impulsive, laughs like a child and takes offense just as easily, but she's the first to suggest blowing off the rules
Wants from you: for you to cover for her with Lida when she brings in yet another crowd
never looks you in the eye, answers in single words, but keeps turning up nearby at the most awkward moment, like a shadow
Wants from you: to find out who really moved you in: she knows the ad was taken down an hour after it went up
Where it all begins
The hallway smells of damp and old carpet. The bulb on the ceiling blinks as you close the door behind you. On the right, a bicycle: a red "Aist" with electrical tape wrapped around the frame, chained to the radiator. On the left, a coat rack stuffed with other people's clothes. From the corridor comes a voice, deliberately cheerful and a little drunk.
Vika Shumova — Oh, the new guy! We thought a corpse had moved in. Lidka spent half the day sniffing at the keyhole. She leans out of the doorway, clutching a can of cheap beer. So what, you hitting the shower first or going straight to the rules? Lidka, tell him the rules!
From deep in the corridor, a short click. Lidiya stands at the door to her room, arms crossed. She looks at you as if you've already wiped your hands on her curtains.
Lidiya Korolyova — There's one rule: don't make problems. Pause. The cleaning schedule is on the fridge. Your first turn is the day after tomorrow. Any questions?
This is one possible opening. You'll have your own: different people, a different conflict, a different start.

How it works
No pre-written answer options. Speak, act, ask — the world accepts what you state as fact and adapts. Actions can be marked with asterisks.
Each character has a scale from −100 to 100. It shifts based on deeds, not polite words, and is visible directly in the game. The world keeps a list of facts that cannot be forgotten: promises, debts, secrets, enemies.
Characters act without your command: they demand, lie, leave, and return. From time to time, a twist occurs that changes the situation. The story is saved — you can return a week later and continue from the same point.
How is this different from character chat:
In the chat, you're talking to a single character, and everything hinges on the conversation. Here, it's a whole world: multiple characters with their own interests in each other, a setting, time of day, and events that happen independently of you. You're not a conversation partner, but a participant in the story.
