This is a Work of Fiction is a game dedicated to conspiracy-theory websites, like the old one about the time cube (find it on the internet archive some time – it’s incredible). It’s a collection of puzzles with no written instructions other than their titles, and completing them unlocks pieces of a story about a person who has been finding clues about an impossibly huge and amorphous conspiracy (but be warned – it doesn’t involve any elder gods, or aliens, or robots, or politicians, or deadpan guys in suits, or giant companies).

Eli Piilonen’s puzzle game is at times infuriatingly oblique, but like an ornery martial-arts master, the hard-nosed insistence becomes admirable, memorable, and ultimately endearing as the game’s strange puzzles unfold.
