Welcome to the Time Crystal Game

Time Crystal is probably the world's first novel to have an on-line game created during the writing of the story!

You might wonder why an author would spend his time developing software when he could be writing fiction. The answer is that

• It will allow readers to role-play their favourite character and tell the author how they think the story should develop. Time Crystal is probably the world's first novel where readers can influence the plot!
• Readers will be able to communicate with each other and with the author. Wyken will observe these interactions, with luck deriving inspiration from them.
• It's fun.
• (Perhaps most important of all) it will generate a little more income and stop the author starving before he finishes this incredible story.

I must emphasise that both Time Crystal and this game are works in progress and will be developed over the weeks and months to come. I've got lots of ideas and more features will be added to the game as time allows. So please be patient and if you subscribe to the newsletter you will be kept informed of developments.

To play the Time Crystal Game you will, of course, need a crystal!

You can buy crystals in the Time Crystal Store.
