Description
Staff note: Enjoy another beautifully illustrated comic by Cadin Batrack. Different from his previous comics, The Botanist and To Dust with its linear storyline, Fauna is a short choose-your-own-adventure that you'll want to come back to experience fully. Guide the hacker duo Jun and Polly through the world of Fauna as they unravel hidden conspiracies and fight for what’s right. In the near future, LLM technology has advanced to the point where humans can use it to communicate with animals. Rival factions fight for control of this powerful technology, and animals—now that they have a voice—seek equal rights. This branching, choose-your-own-adventure comic takes about 15–20 minutes to complete. With dozens of unique story paths , each playthrough reveals new choices, secrets, and perspectives—inviting you to return again and again to experience the full world of Fauna .
