Dungeon Mastron is a free, MIT open-source platform for choose-your-own-adventure games. Build visually with a node graph, play and share instantly in the browser, or paste one prompt template into ChatGPT to generate a complete playable game - then load it onto a 3D-printed Raspberry Pi cartridge console.
Hey Product Hunt!
I love choose-your-own-adventure games, but the tools always felt like they were missing something. Twine is great but code-adjacent. AI tools spit out text you can't keep or structure. And nothing captures the old cartridge magic, the physical slot it in and play ritual.
So I built Dungeon Mastron: a free, MIT open-source CYOA platform. It's a solo passion project in refinement stage, and I'm looking for people to shape it with me.
What works today:
Visual node-graph builder – draw your branching story, no code
AI Companion – paste one prompt template into ChatGPT or Claude and get back a complete playable game file. It helps with narrative AND game structure (stats, items, wounds, endings), not just prose
Browser player – share any game with a link, no account, no install
"Wounds, not death" – failure changes the story instead of restarting it
Any style of game works: fantasy, horror, sci-fi, mystery, educational, whatever you can branch. One honest note: the platform handles story and structure. Images, voice and sound are up to you, sourced or generated elsewhere and dropped into your game folder.
In beta: the DIY Raspberry Pi console, a 3D-printable console where the cartridges are USB sticks. The v1 case is printed and working; the Pi engine runs but needs real testing. STLs are free and the shell is anyone's to remix.
Honestly: for this to become what it could be, a community needs to form around it. Everything is MIT so that can happen. If you like early, weird, open projects: come break it with me. 🎲

node graph editor feels surprisingly snappy and the ChatGPT template actually spit out a playable dungeon in a couple minutes, super cool to see it run on a little pi cart too
How does the Raspberry Pi cartridge actually run the games offline once they’re generated, and is there any hardware dependency or does it work on any Pi setup you flash it onto?
