About the Game
Dr. Trolley's Problem brings the classic philosophical quandaries of The Trolley Problem to life and asks you to make life or death decisions on the fly. Explore your moral fibre in ways you never imagined (or asked for)!Dr. Trolley is an infamous robot mad scientist from another dimension which has sequestered you in its simulation to answer the most pressing questions:
Should humans be allowed to drive cars? Or would driving (and most other things) be safer in the hands of Artificial Intelligence?
Along the way Dr. Trolley will probe all the classic philosophical quandaries of The Trolley Problem. You'll be asked life or death decisions on the fly. You'll explore your moral fibre in ways you never imagined (or asked for). You'll find out what your friends are made of. And you'll help Dr. Trolley decide if you're capable of making any decisions at all!

Prepare earn your PhD in Trolleyology!
This game is game made for the love of The Trolley Problem and all the weird and wonderful questions it makes you ask about yourself. We thought it would be fun to develop a platform for extending the Trolley Problem in all directions. We eventually want to collect accurate statistics about the choices people make (de-identified data, of course) so users can see what choices other people made in the strange situations the game presents. We'd also like to add new situations over time, possibly themed in interesting ways.
Currently the game includes 50 ethical situations that last anywhere from 30 seconds to one minute each. Some situations involve reading what is presented on screen. Within each situation the player decides whether or not to act to save a character (or not).

User Reviews
If nothing else describes Dr. Trolley's Problem, it's that the game is boring. The questions are repetitive and uninteresting, the game doesn't remember what problem you left off on, and the game often breaks for no discernible reason. I would push the developer of this game in front of a trolley to prevent this game being made.
Imagine paying $7.50 for a boring and broken game just to get lectured by the developer about his/her political views. Refunded
Choose to save yourself. While the topic of the game is fine and 'fun' to play out, a few bugs and issues with the game lead to very UNFUN experiences such as the game interrupting your play to ask you to buy the game (that you already bought), an un-optimized 'freezing' when you complete a level, or the UI falsely indicating the wrong choice for your to choose from. (I'm sorry I ran over you mom, Dr. Trolley lied to me). Bought this for $1.25 and I still had more fun with a free quiz version developed from a university study (https://moralmachine.mit.edu/)
Boring and repetitive
Boring situations, unnecessarily annoying controls, and inexcusable load times for a game this small. Felt like 95% waiting and 5% making actual decisions
a little disappointing I can 100% know the developers political views from a game about objective decision making, but other than that, its good.
Interesting, but not great on a technical level. Audio volume keeps resetting to defaults, a number of menus are unresponsive, in some cases it's not possible to quit the game, a few of the scenarios have bugs; some don't register choices correctly, others don't record them correctly. Still kinda cool. If you're interested in it, you'll probably like it. I got it on sale for $1.24, but I don't know if I can recommend at the $5 asking price.
An interesting concept worth a few minute of play. However its pretty buggy and not a whole lot of content. Also disappointed that at no point did I get to hit a pedophile with a trolley.
Got it because my professor made it. Fun, entertaining little game that tests your morals. Could use some more varying content to help make it more worth the price though.
