If AI doesn't respond anymore my fix was restart and whack up the GPU load in settings
This was the worst game I have ever attempted to play in my life. There's no consistency or cohesion in what the AI tells you. The AI broke, so Saxabar, the Coroner and the Sherriff just wouldn't talk at all. Unlocking different areas requires aimless, unguided horrible quality conversation for hours on end with no clear goal of what you need to talk about or discover to get to the next area. When everything is a lie/halluicination what do you even ask about? I have never uninstalled a game so fast. It required a full bottle of wine to try and fix the game as long as I did.
the ai is not working, both when I write or speak through mic no message is being sent.

The game has an interesting gameplay loop in theory. That said, the game became unplayable when the ai used to run the NPCS just stopped working all together. Even when they did work, the ai hallucinates way too much to make the gameplay feel meaningful. Genuine best of luck to the devs. I hope they can fix the issues, as the idea has merit.
INJOUABLE !! Aucune explication. Aucun tuto. Aucune trame pour aiguiller ne serais-ce qu'un peu. L'idée de base d'utiliser de l'IA pour discuter avec les pnj aurait été bonne, si seulement elle fonctionnait ! L'IA ne fait que répondre à côté de ce que l'on lui pose comme questions. Rien de concret. Bref, ca ne vos clairement pas 20e... Une belle arnaque.
It was a fun experience, though it definitely needs to be improved. Talking to the AI NPCs is fun and can lead to completely unique stories for each playthrough. However, for the most part I've found that talking to these NPCs doesn't actually help you solve the murder mystery. Many NPCs make stuff up, or don't understand what you're asking, and sometimes they can break and go into dialogue loops. Solving the case seems to be almost impossible since you never actually collect any real tangible evidence. You just have to guess based on things that these AI NPCs have told you... And that's a problem when you can't tell which AIs are telling the truth. The game can be fixed by both updating the AI so it stays on track with the story, and also by adding in more gameplay elements other than just talking. Add in physical clues and evidence that can be found and matched to suspects so the case is easier to solve. Other than this, I still had an enjoyable experience which is why I'm giving it a thumbs up. Though if I gave it a star rating... it'd be a 3/5.
My first impressions with this game weren't positive by any means. The audio is DEAFENINGLY loud... I mean, seriously just don't risk it, take your headphones off and throw them out the window before it's too late. I've never regretted having ears so much before, and as if that wasn't bad enough, the AI "voices" are abysmal too. The overwhelmingly poor audio quality and non-existent balancing really sets the pace for how this game plays out. Oh, and there's no tutorial. Good luck! While I wish I could say I finished the game and discovered the true murderer(s) behind the victim’s deaths… I can’t. I put four hours into this game and I couldn’t get a lick of sensible information out of ANY of them no matter how I tried. Seriously, how do you investigate murders when these silly clankers can't even introduce themselves in comprehensible English at the very least? I even discovered you can force them to permanently change how they speak by jailbreaking said AI! Oh and, One of them now speaks solely in bee language. As in, he refuses to do anything other than imitating bees. *("Buzzz, bzzz bzzz, beeeoooozzz")* so of course that was the peak of the game and it went downhill from there. I could not figure this puzzle out on my own despite asking questions that made the most sense I decided to look up online what the answers were. Without dropping spoilers, I was right about half of the answers, but ultimately could not piece together the answers in a senseful way. Even after looking up the answers I was baffled by why there was such a lack of fingers to point at other suspicious characters that should have been included in the final lineup. Looking at you, Marcela. What's murder mystery without the mystery of the murders? While I would politely say this game left a bad taste in my mouth I can definitely see how some people may find enjoyment in the nature of this game. Puzzles, murder-mystery, AI-tomfoolery. It’s a recipe for disaster but one that may be quirky enough that it works…but not for me. -Review 2/10
The concept is great, but there's a lot left to tweak.
Do not buy it! The game is completly broken! You can't communcate to the Ai robots, which is the most important part of this game! I repeat, do not buy!
fun but after 3 hours i just cheated and read the guide
