Does it run in a browser
Yes, officially, hosted by the developer. That is a rarer thing than it sounds in this corner of gaming, where most big titles hand you a zip file and wish you luck.
Downloads exist too, for Windows, Linux, macOS and Android, but they are the option, not the requirement. The browser version is the one Fenoxo points people at first.
What you actually play
It is a text adventure set across a lot of planets, with an unusually deep character creator and a habit of remembering choices you made twenty hours ago. You inherit a ship, you go looking for your father, and the plot mostly gets out of the way of the exploring.
The volume of written content is the selling point. This has been in development since 2014 and it shows in the best way. There is more text here than in most novels, and it branches.
Saves and updates
Saves are handled in the browser, with file export available so you can move a run between devices or keep a backup.
Updates land regularly and are funded through Patreon. Playing the online version means you are always on a current build without doing anything about it, which is the quiet advantage of a browser game over a downloaded one.
A decade of writing, and it shows
Development started in 2014 and has not stopped since. That fact does more work than any description of the setting, because in a genre where most projects go quiet after eighteen months, continuous updates for over ten years is the outlier.
What it buys you is volume. There is more written content here than in most novels, and unlike a novel it branches, so two people playing the same stretch can come away describing different scenes entirely.
The character creator deserves its reputation too. It goes far past picking a body type, and the game keeps referring back to those choices instead of forgetting them once the intro ends.
The honest warning is pacing. Games built this way sprawl. If you need a main quest with a clear finish line, the sprawl will read as aimlessness rather than freedom.
Trials in Tainted Space, answered
Do I need an account to play?
No. The public browser build loads straight from the developer site and starts a new game.
Does the mobile version lose anything?
No content is cut. It is the same game in the same browser engine. Long text passages mean a lot of scrolling on a phone, which is the only real difference.
Is Trials in Tainted Space finished?
No, and that is deliberate. It has been updated continuously for over a decade. There is a main storyline you can follow, but the game is built to keep growing.
How does it compare to Corruption of Champions?
Same developer, same appetite for text and transformation, different setting. Corruption of Champions is fantasy, this one is science fiction, and it is the more modern of the two technically.
