The Linear Game is a brief, side-scrolling Environmental Narrative Game made in RPG Maker. Your goal is simple: starting at Point A, walk all the way to Point B. Along the way, you can save your game by talking to NPCs, all of which are very excited that someone's finally playing the game the intended way...though it's very much possible that you won't.

All There in the Manual: The protagonist is named "The Explorer" in save files, but is never actually addressed in-game due to all of the NPCs acknowledging the player themself.

Invisible Wall: Attempting to go left on the first screen has The Explorer run into one of these, after which the NPC will ask if you're satisfied with your curiosity. Trying to go left after this conversation has the wall disappear.

Excuse Plot: The only reason you're walking from Point A to Point B is because it's what the game asks you to do.

And I Must Scream: According to the first two NPCs, not only has there been over 3000 previous players, but they've been anxiously waiting for at least one to finally reach point B.
