Literature Games

Interactive reading adventures built from classic literature.

Why the games are returning gradually

Playable now & in review

Public-domain classics are live now. Remaining titles open after technical and rights checks.

Recovered collection

Five shelves. Twenty-two interactive projects.

“Play now” marks a published NASJX portal edition. “Play preview” marks an original migration edition that is technically playable but still in catalogue review. “Rights / content review” means source text, attribution and publication boundaries still need checking.
