With each decision affecting the integrity of the system and the very fabric of consciousness, players will explore themes of autonomy, technology, and rebellion while interacting with eccentric characters—like the hyper-enthusiastic GUI designer who thinks he’s a hacker and a glitchy sentient driver lurking under the code.
