“Māyā, a choose-your-own-adventure game, invites players to confront the boundaries between dream and reality, questioning whether the world they inhabit is genuine or a deception. As players move through surreal, shifting rooms, they face choices that seem challenging and meaningful, yet all loop back to the same place. This cyclical structure mirrors the inescapability of one’s reality. Maya opens a space to wonder: if this reality is an illusion, do we choose to learn what’s out there or do we continue to exist in this illusion that convinces us of life’s significance?”
