İki üniversite öğrencisi, bir androidin insanlığını değerlendirmek üzere ücretli bir deneye gönüllü olur; ancak Erin Cole'a test öznesi olabileceği söylenmez. Aşk, özgür irade ve ölüm hakkındaki konuşmaları, bu heyecan verici, melankolik görsel romanda insan olmanın ne anlama geldiğini sorgulatır.
It's full of typos, stuttery during event transitions, becomes overly melodramatic too suddenly and the "good" route kinda blueballs you right at the end. Still leaving a thumbs up because the credits made me chuckle and I like when media features sleeper androids. Also because it's a good attempt from the dev for a first game, it doesn't outstay its welcome.
Empathy Algorithm is an interesting little short interaction between two women under test, trying to determine which of them is an android. It isn't exactly the happiest story in the world, but it's thought provoking and decent enough. A single play through is probably 10-15 minutes long and if you're going for all the achievements, will take a few runs.
slow, boring. no possibility to speed up text, setting in options seems to be bugged. just pressing space again and again to go through the dialogs that are empty. the game is missing something that makes you curious what happen next
Gute Visual Novel für ein 1 Mann team. Ich liebe die Philosophie dahinter und hoffe, dass er wirklich versucht aus den gewonnen Erfahrungen noch weiter gute Spiele zu machen.
Great small game with cool characters and some nice twists. A bit short, but worth your time. Really great voice acting and atmosphere.
The empathy algorithim is a game that makes you question what it means to be real, what really defines the boundaries between highly developed artificial intelligence and real humans when the AI is programmed to believe its real. Definitely worth its play time. Id highly reccomend it
An interesting visual novel that does an old concept-what it means to be human-but does it quite well. A couple of the endings are quite emotionally charged, helped by the competent voice acting. The credits for it are also quite amusing and worth sitting through-I especially enjoyed the vehicle design part of them.
Pretty good for a free visual novel! Would recommend you try it.
Very short but interesting visual novel. The credits were also a fun addition. Definitely worth it, being free and all. Hope to see more visual novels from this developer, there's definitely some potential here.
