Twine is an authoring system for choice-based interactive fiction, developed by Chris Klimas. It outputs stories as HTML/CSS web pages.

Twine story files have a .tws file extension; output files are saved with a .html extension.

Twine is also released with Twee, the command-line version of Twine. This allows Twine authors to use their own editors instead of Twine's interface, if they prefer.

-[[Twine]] is a [[authoring system]] by [[Chris Klimas]] that uses wiki technology to create [[CYOA]] stories into a single HTML/CSS page for playing. A Twine story can be non-trivial, that is, have a world state that changes in response to the player's choices. For example, the game can remember if the [[player-character]] acquired a silver key and not offer the choice to use it when the PC doesn't have it.
