One-Nine-Nine-Nine

2025 // Riot of Colors

One-Nine-Nine-Nine is a throwback, point-and-click adventure game set in the final hours of 1999, as two Chicago IT professionals race to stop a plot to drain the city’s financial institutions.

In addition to a dope UI and gameplay, we included a generative narrative engine in which character logic and plot progression are driven by real-time inference from a Large Language Model (LLM) rather than static decision trees. 

By simulating the distinct psychological profiles of Q and Rashad—embedded with deep semantic knowledge of Chicago history and 1999 pop culture, the system enables unscripted, organic interactions in which every user’s choice dynamically alters the narrative trajectory and available critical paths in real-time. It doesn’t detract from or change the human-written pieces; it simply adds another dimension. 

Stay tuned.
