Silicon Dreams is launching April 20th!
In a corporate-controlled dystopian future where the lines between the real and the artificial have blurred to almost nothing, an interrogation-model android becomes caught between big tech and a brewing revolution. Players can intimidate, manipulate, betray or befriend; they can aid the insurgents or bring about their downfall. They can adhere to their strict programming or succumb to deviant emotion.
Speak, or forever hold your peace: Carefully control the flow of information. Decide what to reveal, and when, and to whom. Facts vs feelings: Monitor interviewees emotions in real-time joy, sadness, anger, disgust, shock, and fear. Use this data to plan a strategy & draw conclusions. Live and let die: Choose to spare deviant androids, or condemn them and secure your own survival within the corporation. Branching paths: Move through a vast web of dialogue options and experience multiple endings depending on the path you choose.
If that sounds like your thing, great! We're only two developers, though, so we'd really appreciate a wishlist, or any support on twitter, facebook or instagram you can muster. Thanks, and wish us luck!

- Silicon Dreams (linux) [3.47 G]
Androids may dream of electric sheep,but perhaps they dream of so much more.
Silicon Dreams is a game of conversation and interrogation; trust and betrayal.
It’s the future. Everyone has an android: a realistic robot servant. But what happens when those servants disobey, or become a bit too independent?
It’s your job to interview those malfunctioning androids and decide what to do with them. You’ll gain their trust, learn their secrets and come to understand their lives - their struggles in a world that treats them as devices to be consumed. You’ll analyze and manipulate their emotions to get at the truth. For these androids, the stakes are huge: the report you file could be the difference between freedom and getting shut down.
But you’re at risk too: your employer does not tolerate mistakes. Will you sell out these free-thinking androids, or feed your bosses false information to try and save them?
