About
Good Story Guild

It is a time of crisis in the realm of storytelling: the barriers to entry are getting smaller, new technology continues to disrupt business models and power has consolidated into the hands of a few empires. Storytelling needs a new wave of heroes to usher in the next era. Instead, they got us - a guild of industry veterans, rogues, and outsiders alike, brought together through a little serendipity and a passion for great story hooks. GSG is on a journey to bring back a little risk and danger to our beloved art form. Will you join us?

Cat Secretary is a story about sacrifice, family, and how a company’s obsession with infinite growth crippled the morale and productivity of its workforce. It’s also a story about a cat who becomes a secretary and solves problems around the office to improve the lives of their coworkers.

With the help of an eccentric Chief Creative Officer and MouseCorp, a company of mice that work within the walls of DOX HQ, Cat Secretary will unravel the story of the media empire, DOX, solve the puzzle-driven problems of their colleagues in office quests, and complete mini-game responsibilities to keep their day job. Who's a good Cat Secretary? You are!
