You are standing by a tree
There are 3 paths.
One appears to go to a jungle,
one appears to go to a cave,
one appears to go to a beach,
you could try and climb the tree,
there is a nearby shop you could go in,
or you could do something else.
So what's its going to be?

You sit under the tree
You sit under the tree.
Suddenly...

See? Keep moving or you get tranked. That's how the game is played.
Your relaxing moment under the tree is rudely interrupted by an abrupt transformation. You are hit by a tranquilizer dart, which turns you into a person with a tranquilizer dart stuck in their neck. It's an easy change. Of course, your train of thought gets about as far as "Oh good heavens, a dart of some kind. I'd betteeerrgmphqq," at which point the dart takes effect, and you slump under the tree like a drugged-up rag doll. A half-hearted twitch is all the moving you do for quite some time. Eventually, you wake up. When you do, you are...

Amnesia
A door. It is the only thing that blocks the path toward freedom, but nothing can make it budge, for it seems possessed by a will of its own. How to cross it is beyond your knowledge, for the past is blurry at best.
Scratching your head, you sit on the ground near it, trying to figure out what happened so you would be trapped in such a place. Was the will of someone hiding in the shadows, an individual that was orchestrating a plot that would unfold step by step? Or was it simple misfortune that had trapped you in an abandoned building, in the middle of nowhere?
For the moment, all you can do is to try to fight the darkness that enveloped your thoughts; it is strange that you were unable to remember what happened before you ended up here, but perhaps thinking about it could jog your memory a bit.
Passing your hand on your head, you felt a small bump on the back of it; this could be the cause of the temporary amnesia that is striking you at the moment, although there is a chance that it isn't the real cause of it. It is a mystery that is necessary to solve, so you can comprehend the situation that you were trapped in.
Looking around, you wonder if it is the best thing to waste your time on searching for an answer that may not exist; with the time at your disposal, there was a chance that you could escape this wretched place and embrace sweet freedom, although it seems unlikely as you continue to observe the environment.

Explore the room
The door is the first thing you notice; massive, impressive, it stands there, a guardian that is standing in your way, unbreakable, unwilling to bend to your desire. It's duty is to guard the path to freedom, a simple task that it is going to fulfill until the end of time, even if nothing remains to make sure that it would still stand to do so.
What is such a barrier composed of? By simply looking at it, you are unable to determine what sort of material it is composed of, making you wonder what kind of great minds must have gathered to have assembled it in the first place. Or could it be the offspring of an artificial intelligence; either way, there is no chance to remove it from the path unless you figure out how to open it, but there are no keypad or anything of the sort that would be useful.
However, it isn't the only thing that stands out; the walls are white, as if this was some sort of medical facility, or a futuristic complex. Perhaps it is both; you are unsure what sort of purpose it is supposed to fulfil, but you have the impression that you will soon learn about it.
It seems pretty empty for the moment, but this is only a small portion of the room; having not explored the rest of it, it is normal that you are unable to determine if there is something else awaiting you in the depths of the shadows. Perhaps there is a hideous beast hiding in the dark, waiting for you to approach, craving the tenderness of the flesh for whatever obscure and alien motives it could be motivated by.
It is a terrifying thought, but you can't let such a theory stop you in your investigation. If such a case were to happen, then a solution would present itself; being afraid of a potential future was pointless, for it was also possible that nothing of the sort would happen. Such a fear would be harmful in the long run, for it would stop any possible exploration by encouraging phobias.
