Who falls into your life
Meet the Travellers
Two men who built a machine that works — a little too well — and the stranger who keeps having to decide what to do about them. That last one is you.

Keith
Built it in a garage · from car parts
"It works. That's the good news. The bad news is it works, and I can't yet make it work the way I'd like — namely, backwards, and toward home."
You
You
A different local · every single time
A Roman farm girl. A Norse trader. A newspaperman in a shaking city. Each episode, you're someone new — and you're the only one who can decide whether these two lunatics live to jump again.
On the phone you already own
How It Works
A text adventure that plays entirely inside Telegram as a Mini App. No downloads, no installs — just tap and play. Eight episodes, eight centuries, branching choices that actually cost something — and a machine that never once lands where it means to.
01
Open Telegram
Tap the link. The game opens right in the app you already have. Nothing to download.
02
Land somewhere new
Every episode drops you into a different century as a different local — Rome, a fjord, a shaking city, a bright morning in Dallas.
03
Decide what to do with them
Hide them. Help them. Turn them in. The machine will take them onward regardless — but not before you've made your choice.
Different century. Different you. Same two lost men.
Somewhere on the road to Rome
Take a few steps
a 30-second taste. the real thing spans two thousand years.

Smoke, salt, and a firepit with strong opinions about strangers.
III
★ STARS
The Shaking City
Cable cars, a newspaper date, and a floor that will not stay still. 1906.

A river that gives everything and forgives nothing. The brass hates the heat.

★ STARS
The Question
A century too clean, a light too white. Someone is asking what you are.

The Man Who Knew
Padua. A burned pamphlet, a frightened scholar, a truth it's dangerous to have seen.
VII

Dealey Plaza
A bright morning in Dallas. You know exactly what day it is. They don't.

◆ FINALE
The Grove
Back under the same olive trees where it began. This time you understand the language.
Testimony, collected across the ages
What the Witnesses Say
Nobody who met them ever quite got over it. Reviews gathered from several centuries, none of them contemporary with each other.
