Welcome to Viva Ponata
Viva Ponata is a text-based game set in the film business. Build a career, start a studio, shoot films, buy property, travel, and get into as much trouble as you dare. It is a world of opportunity, danger and big dreams.
It is for adults (18+) and has mature themes, but nothing explicit. It is very much a work in progress: some areas are still being built and things will change as it grows, so expect the odd rough edge and plenty of new things to try.
