Furventure Games is a game studio that creates mostly erotic furry centered games in a text-based format, with some additional images used to set particular scenes or as cover art.

History[edit]

Furventure Games began developing games at the end of 2018, under the name InterFurCreations. After a Telegram poll in March 2019[1], the admins changed the name to Furventure Games, possibly to better reflect the adventure aspect many of their stories take.

The games are playable on Telegram, Discord and their website, and primarily use buttons or commands to select paths to progress the story-lines, many of which lead to sexual content or encounters. Over the years the creators have written games with differing progression formats (eg. open-world, RPG style). The games vary in size, with some games reaching hundreds to thousands of playable actions and hundreds of thousands of written words.

The games are all hosted via server and to connect (depending on the platform you play on), on Telegram you need to either message a bot called @FurryAdventureBot or join via link[2]. On Discord you can only gain access by a link to the bot named Furry Text Adventure bot[3]. In the instance of playing on the website [4], you must create a username in order to access the games and to save your data.

Whilst the Furventure Games announcement channels inform on new releases and important information, in-depth updates and changes are only available on the Furventure Games Patreon [5] from the first tier upwards. These updates feature behind the scenes in the creation of the games and the software involved. The games are as of June 2021 created using the open-source diagram.net. The software for hosting the games on Telegram, Discord and a web app was made available on GitHub [6] on July 2020.

As of January 2022, the servers are up[7] and the development of games appears to be ongoing with the last update being to the game Deer's Journey. The website's style has changed to a blue hue with a background image included. Discord has been updated to use buttons as it now supports this, bringing it in line with their telegram version [8]. According to a public Patreon update on the 1st of January 2022, there is work on offline playability and new content being written. The games have passed over 12,000 unique players with over 2.5 million buttons having been pressed [9]. Deer's Journey is their largest game, with Arral and College Days being the next largest respectively.

Owners[edit]

The owners and writers of the games are Taldrin and Shahf from England and Scotland respectively. According to the info section on their first game Room 417 they first began by the copy-pasting of text they wrote on Discord into a bot they threw together and have since expanded and improved on to its current state.

The two appear to interact with fans on Itch.io and Twitter, answering questions and giving updates on their announcement platforms, be that Twitter, Telegram or Discord. They have posted in the past on visiting the Swedish furry convention NFC, with a picture of one of the banners from 2019[10].

Games[edit]

The games featured on the website are split into larger titles and Micro games, which link to a separate table of contents for smaller works. The main games shared on all 3 platforms are:
