Eight years after the release of You Are Jeff Bezos--a text adventure where you, a normal person, must try to spend the fortune of one of the richest and most terrible men on the planet--creator Kris Lorischild has blessed us with You Are Elon Musk, a text adventure where you, a normal person, must try to spend the fortune of one of the richest and even more terrible men on the planet.
Placing you body swap-style inside Musk for a day and asking you a succession of branching, multiple-choice questions, the game features:
The long-awaited sequel to You Are Jeff Bezos, exploring the age-old question: What would you do if you had more money than any single human being should ever have?
Give to important causes or feed your own vanity. Tank your reputation or impress the internet masses. Unionize Tesla. Get a vasectomy. All this and more in this hot, thrilling new Twine game with 200 passages and 7 endings!
I chose to spend the money ending poverty, eliminating lunch debt, funding artists and buying a superyacht (as a treat, for myself), before a mishap involving Steve Bannon and a giant robot sent me careening to my death. How your day as Musk will end depends on the choices you make. Good luck, and if you dig the game, Kris' Patreon page is here.
