Magic Mushrooms es una pequeña ficción interactiva hecha en HTML compuesta de imágenes y texto, que podrás terminar nada más que en 3 minutos. La protagonista es Lola, y tú podrás llevarla con tus decisiones a 10 finales distintos pasando por situaciones cada una más rara que la anterior, con inesperados resultados.
Gameplay
[ENG]
This can be described as a visual novel. For me, it is more a comic than a game, but it´s interactive. You only have to turn the pages by clicking or touching the screen. In some parts, you will have to choose.
[ESP]
Podríamos decir que es una novela visual, pero yo la describo más como un cómic interactivo. Más simple que el mecanismo de un botijo, usa el ratón o toca la pantalla para pasar las páginas y elegir qué decisión va a tomar Lola cuando se presente la ocasión.
Controls
[ENG]

Click izquierdo o tocar la pantalla: palante 😊👍.

Not really a fan of your disclaimer at the beginning. Psychosis isn’t really a long-term effect of psychedelic use at all. It can trigger the emergence of underlying neurological disorders (such as schizophrenia) that present in part as psychosis, but that’s exceedingly rare.
I’d argue the main adverse effects to warn about would be 1) psychological trauma, which can be caused by a challenging experience (bad trip), and 2) HPPD (hallucinogen persisting perception disorder) which, while also rare, can happen and causes constant visual disturbances like shifting or static.
Just played through the whole game and really liked it too, despite the inaccuracies!
I have a moral duty to warn against this particular danger, because I do not want anyone to experience such a situation. And yes, it is real even though it is not common.
Here is an example of what I mean:
"This — the psychosis followed by the deep depression — was something completely different. And it was triggered by her use of psychedelics.
Eight months earlier, the woman had tried hallucinogenic mushrooms for the first time with friends and had such a great time that she took them again the next day. The second time, though, something went terribly wrong.
“She had a full blown psychotic episode for the first time in her life,” said Dr. Nemeroff, who published the woman’s story as a case report in The American Journal of Psychiatry in December. Her friends, who took the same drugs she did both days, had no lasting ill effects."
