How it feels

A short, minimalist interactive fiction where you're tasked with repeatedly evaluating and executing subjects based on fragmentary data, creating a tense, philosophical atmosphere.

What players say

Players widely agree it is a very short, hour-long game with no replay value. The moral choices can be engaging, causing deliberation, but many call the character twists predictable and the writing marred by grammatical errors. Opinions are split on whether the cheap price justifies the minimal content.
