Stories: Path of Destinies (SPOD) is a story-driven, choose your own adventure (where some of the book doesn't exist yet until you explore alternate realities), alternate reality, time-travel, hack and slash, top down, brawler, rpg, omg cool game.

It is a pretty good Steam Deck game if you want a simple little adventure game in short bursts but I do not recommend getting 100%.
