I was excited to try the game again after the major updates dropped, only to find my PC no longer being able to run it. Ran seamlessly before, without any problems. Now has incredibly long load times, and freezes when I hold control to speak. When I do manage to send a message to the bot, trying to follow up gave me a blue screen. The settings don't offer any fixes, and launching with different APIs don't change a thing. I hope it's just a optimization error, rather than the updates requiring a far better computer. For now, lower end PC's as far as I can tell, are in an unplayable state.
The only saving grace on this game is that I can call the characters slurs and interrupt them
This game is a great showcase for how AI can make a game more immersive. Instead of having dialog options to choose, you can say anything you want. This gives you the scope to try different questioning strategies to solve the case. It also allows you to roleplay because you can talk about things that are not related to the case in hand, sometimes NPCs will ask if you want a cup of tea and cake and you get information about it being served and them drinking and eating. You can also offer things to ingratiate yourself with an NPC. All in all, an interesting and absorbing game if you are willing to give it a try.
Fun little detective game It certainly has a few flaws — mainly that the AI you’re supposed to talk to sometimes completely breaks and repeats the same things from time to time — but it never bothered me much. I managed to solve the case in under four hours. This game is actually very interesting and fun to explore, or rather, fun to talk to the AI in the game. Sometimes the AI was completely misleading, although I’m not sure if that was intended or just a bug. In any case, I really had fun with it, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to try something new.
fun to mess around with ai chatbots in this game
♥♥♥♥
they don´t cooparate for ♥♥♥♥
quite a fun game. working on making my own story in the editor now hopefully that just as fun
Does not work well at all
This game is unplayable and not because of any issues with the Al. I can't even get that far. The games resolution just does not work. You enter the police station and then leave and every button is off screen. Even playing in windowed mode. Unfortunately, I am past the refund period and didn't discover this game is unplayable until now. Shame.
