About This Game

Do you have a vague understanding of human interaction? Well this is the game for you!

Your mission: Infiltrate a world of extremely trusting humans, speak to them, and convince them that you’re definitely not a robot.

You will learn to move your mouth in certain ways to make words come out. Somehow, speech happens just by waving a wet tongue around and stretching your lips.

Nobody knows how this works but in this simulation you will have to learn quickly if you don’t want your face to explode.

Unfortunately, there were some corners cut on your safety features. If you make errors your systems will overload and your AI will be forced to relieve pressure by triggering one of the various array of facial explosions and mechanical glitches.

As you upgrade your social mechanics, you will have to learn to smile when something is happy and frown when something is sad. There is also the eye contact upgrade, as humans find it suspicious if you look unceasingly into their eyes with a wide smile as they tell you a tragic story.

GAME FEATURES

Make your way through 10 different social scenarios such as job interviews, eulogies, doctor examinations, and romantic conversations.
Upgrade yourself with the latest in social technology. Learn to smile, raise an eyebrow, and awkwardly glance away from eye contact, just like in real life!
The most realistic gibberish system ever seen in gaming. Play within a dynamic audio system that reacts to tongue and mouth movement.
Replayability: With a huge array of different failure facial explosions, every conversation is hilarious and unique.
Fantastically beautiful tongue graphics. Finely tuned spit particles.
Adaptive soundtrack which changes as you enter different parts of your conversation.
Highly polished dialogue and delightful narrative.
Take part in the human self expression known as dance.
Customize your robot to make it feel like your own.
A surprisingly good portrayal of social anxiety.

Not Recommended

Very funny idea, very quickly becomes the opposite of fun to play. Getting 100% with all "upgrades" is essentially impossible on even the easiest levels, and the last levels are extremely difficult to begin with (even without all modifiers) so, completely garbage achievement design. The tongue cannot really be kept in a safe position to avoid pressing the red buttons, so it's basically completely random whether you get through it or not, and with all modifiers it becomes so busy that you can't even begin to enjoy a second of it. Just pure frustration and anxiety. Early on, it's easy to blast through with controller, but the later levels are completely impossible with controller (to me anyway) so you need to switch to KB+M to have a chance, and the game is also significantly less fun on keyboard and mouse, and, it was already not fun anymore even before that, so..... yeah.
