a “Choose Your Own Adventure” themed video game, but with friends.
Below are the three stories Morgan wrote and created for the client. These three stories had the highest “Player completion rate” among all of their various stories (games). Which means that players were more likely to complete the game all the way through for my stories.
Red Riding Hood, having recently survived an attack by a special “wolf-like” creature that abducted her grandmother, seeks out the famed huntress, Sam Van Helsing to help her catch the creature responsible. Amidst their quest to find the creature, the unlikely duo encounter a host of other familiar characters (and monsters) which include the likes of Drake (Dracula), Dr. Hyde, the All Mother (The Mummy), Thulu (Cthulhu), and more…
The zombie outbreak is ancient history. The new normal is segregated societies. One for humans and one for zombies. There is an understanding. You don’t bother us, we don’t bother you. But when a Zombie is murdered by a suspected human, the peace between the two societies hangs in the balance. An investigation is put into action where a human and a zombie investigator must work together to uncover the truth.
Sunny Hills High is your typical suburban high school. But when a group of students go missing, only to magically return 1 week later now acting completely different, Kelsey and Ruby Creed suspect something “unnatural” has happened to them. Pretty soon, the entire community start acting strangely too. The Creed sisters decide to launch an investigation of their own to find out what’s really going on. Now they must learn to get along and trust one another if they are going to uncover the mystery, before it takes them too.
Crossroad Tales
Client: MIXI (Japanese Mobile Game Company)
Medium: Mobile Game Narrative (Choose-Your-Own-Adventure / Branching Dialogue)
Roles: Narrative Director, Lead Writer

MIXI, one of Japan’s major mobile gaming companies, needed original narrative content for the U.S. expansion of their interactive mobile title. Rather than localizing or adapting their existing stories, they wanted entirely new, American-market-focused narratives that could broaden the game’s appeal and introduce fresh characters, themes, and emotional hooks tailored for Western audiences.

Morgan was hired to write a series of brand-new choose-your-own-adventure–style scripts, building original storylines from scratch. These interactive narratives were designed with multiple branching paths, character-driven choices, and varied emotional outcomes — giving players a sense of agency while maintaining coherent thematic arcs. Morgan also provided narrative direction for the project to ensure tone, structure, and story logic all supported MIXI’s vision for its U.S. rollout.
