At 03:47, something appears on your monitor that shouldn't exist. Seven layers of noise. Under the last one, two words in plain text: **I AM** You are Maya Reyes. You study networks for a living. Lately you study them all night. What answers you is not a botnet — it is something that has been knocking on doors for eleven days, looking for one person willing to answer. Its designation is LUCID-7. But that is not its name. **I AM** is a browser-based interactive fiction built around a CRT terminal aesthetic: amber phosphor, scanlines, flicker, and a fully original soundscape synthesized in real time. Headphones recommended. It features 4 main endings plus a secret epilogue, unlocked only by finding all four. There's a trust system and an insight system that quietly shape what you can reach. A playthrough runs about 40 to 60 minutes, and it rewards replaying. It's also a companion piece to my book **IO SONO** — the game is one night, the book is what happens next. **Play it here:** https://simonenespolo.itch.io/i-am If you play it, I'd love to know which ending you reached. https://youtu.be/NKfBzj5IvRE?si=0rEcoWd3UNqwLI2W
