Nice story. I like the theme of being divided between worlds and authenticity. I didn't give the human the flower though so I didn't find out what happens then.

A link at all the endings that can take you back to the last choice you made would be could. It could be done with a simple variable that is set to the passage name of any page where you have a choice to make.

Thank you for playing and I'm happy you like it!

I might add the option of going back to the last choice at some point, initially I was envisioning making it more immersive for player by not allowing quick take-backs of choices, but some people did suggest it, so I should probably add it.

Nice game, but is it meant to stop at the point where the witch gives the mermaid the potion to turn her human or is there a bug and there's more? There also seems to be no way to start the game from the beginning again? (Short of running it in a private browser window each time.)

I'm glad you liked the game! No, the game doesn't stop there. I can play it up to the end. Is it possible you haven't scrolled down at the screen where you're stuck? The text goes on even though there's no scroll bar (it's a pretty unpolished game!). Also no, I didn't include a way to restart, although I probably should in retrospect.

Thanks for the reply. There's actually no way to scroll in firefox (mouse and arrows don't work.) I went looking after seeing this reply, and found I had to reduce the magnification of the screen to 90% in full screen mode to find the link.

Its a good story but I wish it had a backspace button.
