A 30-45 minute turn-based RPG built overnight as an engine showcase: six recruitable characters (party of three), four recurring NPCs, choice-driven dialogue with visible-but-locked skill checks, shops, loot, levels, two bosses with in-battle Talk options, the reverted grey-town beat, and an epilogue assembled from the player's actual choices. 33 dialogue scenes / 171 nodes. Terrain is ColorLayers only; kenney_tinydungeon supplies characters, items, and props. Creative direction, story, dialogue, maps, and systems design by Fable; implementation by four Opus subagents (framework, battle, overworld, integration). Verified by tests/playthrough.py: a scripted headless run of all three acts, 20/20 beats passing, plus per-system unit tests (script integrity, UI kit, 225-battle balance sim, overworld). Run: cd build && ./mcrogueface --exec ../games/unwritten/main.py Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014vxWJ6GY384SmZiMVXgrF4
