Thief In The Stacks is a short gothic interactive fiction game created in Twine. The player explores a sentient, shifting library while attempting to steal the document that binds them to a powerful guardian and the house under his control. Player choices shape the tension between resistance, trust, and wrath, leading to multiple endings that range from reluctant surrender to magical containment. The game uses branching narrative, conditional dialogue, environmental storytelling, original interface styling, dynamic background art, and adaptive music cues to build a claustrophobic dark-romance atmosphere. The project explores autonomy, possession, institutional power, and the uneasy overlap between protection and control.
