Hello! This is a game that I really, really loved.
Back in tumblr other IF authors warned about a site that has started to appear that is hitching on some of the IFs present here in Itch, as if it was made by this site, and Trigaea is one of the IFs they put up there. I'm informing you through here because it's the only way I know how.
The site is called Citron Games and it has citron-apps in the link; some other authors reported it appearing in the game analytics here in itch.io.
I just finshed the game and unlocked all endings. My favorite ending was 11-3 and this story really well made and I enjoyed it so much. I would play this again years later
This was the game that introduced me to itch.io two years ago and I have to say sorry for not leaving any form of appreciation. This game was a literal Tearjerker for me. I was so attached to a lot of the characters and I am so happy that I got introduced to this space with this marvel!
This the rpg text-based game that eggs you on to explore all its features and branching choices, reeling you in its world. I was stuck to my computer for days on end, going away only when sleep and hunger called me but even then I still thought about what would happen next in the story.
I say this with all love and joy but this is a game that I couldn't replay—because it would kill me to experience all the highs and lows again. Thank you, Developers!
This game is basically the trolley problem on steroids. Love it to bits, will note that a log of previous events would be appreciated as i often found myself double clicking the 1 key and ending up skipping entire pages.
That aside, this game made me feel, for the humans, the x'irii, and the machines. It made the final decision so much more gut wrenching and difficult. I love it.
I completed this game today, and I’m not sure if I’ll ever be the same again. Trigaea is not only an interactive fiction. It is a fast decline — of certainty, of identity, of your assumptions of what is important. You start the game in a state of confusion, of course. By the end, however, the confusion is something sacred. You know what happened. You just wish it hadn’t. I spread my playthrough across months, because the writing was too strong to bear rushing. Each ending is sewn with careful pain and hope, each choice small but permanent. The quotes that cap each route aren’t just poetic — they sting. They stay with you. They fuck you up in the best way. **Spoiler Warning Curtain**

“Who can distinguish wakefulness from sleep? Only the dreamer can.” My final ending was 11-3 and I cried when I got it. Because it wasn’t closure. It was acceptance. Bittersweet, delicate, all too human.
The game wonders: If the world is unfixably broken, do you still try to fix it? And the game, when you respond, is listening. It never shames you. Even if you walk away. Even if you sleep forever.
What makes Trigaea unique is that it respects you. It’s deferent to your hope, your exhaustion, your silence. I’ve played a ton of sci-fi VNs, from Infinite Stars to Andromeda Six. I love all of them. But Trigaea is different. It does not just give you a story. It gives you a haunting.
If you like:
Existential choices
Soft-spoken tragedy
Games that don’t hold your hand, but your protests.”then please-play this.
And don’t expect to come out the same.
hey im a amature writer and would love to write like a fanfiction about this game
I absolutely loved it and I'm currently in last stretch of 100 percenting it right now
I'm just reaching out for your permission to do this and to ask if you have a doc or smth similar for the lore so i don't need to replay the game everytime i forget smth(ill still be replaying it anyways)
Man, I forgot how gay this game is. 10/10, am super glad I came back to do another full playthrough. This really cheered me up after a rough week (and then made me sad again lmao).

Please have a nice month.
This game has ruined my standards forever. Fuck me. It's too good. 😭
Is there romance here

Wait. How is this free? I'm supposed to pay for this level of quality. Artists should not starve.

Goodnight, Corrector.

I'm happy we have an option not to do The Romance Thing (tm)! I don't have the willpower for all endings, but I think I did well!
This game sent me into an existential crisis and i loved it
I've explored to the stellar part of the forest and I can't find anything that allows me to reach the library. Does anyone know where the tower is?
The library is actually in the grey wastes! You need to keep exploring their until you find it
You may have charted the tower or library already, so check your charted locations! :)

Really immersive and well made! I like the choice of music too.
