The Uncertainty Principle

Play the whole series. Thirty chapters, sixty-seven endings.

An interactive what-if through the whole of Breaking Bad. At each turning point you pick one of three alternatives, watch a short cartoon scene, and carry the consequences into the next chapter. Where you land depends on how far you turned into Heisenberg, who still trusts you, what Hank suspects and what is left of the family.

The 30 turning points

Each chapter has its own page. Read the setup, see the three choices, or jump straight in.
