Overview

About this game

You’ve been accused of unthinkable crimes — including destroying five entire star systems. But there’s a catch: your memory has been wiped.

The Ethics Board is split. If you can’t remember your crimes, are you still guilty?

Their solution? A test. Prove you’re not innately evil, and you’ll go free. Fail... and it’s curtains. Or lasers. Lethal ones.

Guiding you through your psychological trials is the Director — a theatrical figure with a flair for manipulation, moral puzzles, and "therapy" sessions designed by people who definitely shouldn't have a license.

But what if the only way to survive… is to break free from the script entirely?

Features

  • Multiple Endings — Your choices actually matter. Not just “two buttons, same outcome” matter - REAL consequences. Crazy, I know.

  • Puzzles Designed by Lunatics — Solve challenges like "Guess the Emotion of This Fish" and "Can You Empathise with a Chair?" Just standard stuff.

  • Iconic Characters — A scam-artist banana with five fake identities. A ghost desperate to master jumpscares but tragically too adorable. You know, the classics.

  • Empathy Tests — Decide who to save from a sinking ship. Catch a falling puppy - or... don't. (But seriously. Do.)

  • Unhinged Minigames — Identify countries from cursed holiday photos. Guess historical years from bizarre images. Spot the anomaly before it spots you.

  • Mind games The Director will lie to you. Frequently. Convincingly. Through song, maybe. Play along… or tear it all down.

And finally...
