    The Crossroads

    An Alice in Wonderland/Coraline-inspired adventure game with a dark twist on nursery rhymes.

    There once was a girl named Apple. There were two things she loved most: dancing and adventures. She would dance and dance until her feet hurt, and after a long day of dancing, she could be found snuggled up with a book, eager for the next adventure. Apple longed for a grand adventure of her own.

    One day, Apple finds herself in a mysterious hall of doors called The Crossroads. There she meets a Cheshire cat who hints that the only way out is through a locked door. To unlock it, she must find two keys, all while surviving the sinister scenarios that may lurk behind each door.

    Trust your gut, and choose wisely.
