About the Story

You've wanted to be a sim hunter ever since the incident in the Preservation Dome. When you finally made it in the Agency, you put your all into it, deleting simuloids at a rate second only to your partner, rival and best friend, Ursula.

And then your routine Mental Diffusion test came back positive. Are you really a simuloid yourself? Are your memories fake? Is being a simuloid actually a bad thing? Is the entire simuloid panic a hoax perpetrated by the Conglomerate?

Starting from the moment when Ursula finally catches up to you, intending to "delete" her closest companion (unless you can persuade her otherwise), this globe-spanning adventure is an interactive story where YOU decide what happens next. Change society. Change reality. Change yourself. Or just forget the main story and go fishing. What happens next? It's up to YOU.

(WARNING: this is a joke game for the "REALLY BAD IF Jam".)

The Simuloid Affair: Infinite Possibilities is a short timed (turns) parser starting (well, more like ending) with a bang! You wake up from a strange dream and find on the other side of the barrel of a gun pointed at you, your partner in crime, hunting you down for being… not a human, it turns out. OH! and there’s also a bomb that will blow up in a minute (about a dozen-ish turns?).

The title suggest an infinite amount of ways to get yourself out of this sticky situation, with many ways of escaping and be free of all of this, maybe even learn if you’re truly a simuloid or someone up-high has done this to get back at you. Kinda gives me heavy Blade Runner vibes.

Except… well. You’re not really a dexterous person (somehow!!! considering you’re a hunter??), so getting out of there is tricky. Really tricky. Almost impossibly tricky.

If you don’t manage to get out, or just want to stay a bit longer because Ursula (your partner) needs to unload (hehe, she has a gun) what’s on her mind, you’d learn quite a bit about yourself, how everything got to this point, and your environment.

Who am I kidding… not a single command works in this game. You can try your best! But you will get at best a proper fail response, or just a random one that is barely related to what you just typed.

The game (I started with failing on purpose at first) has such a great setup that you can’t believe it would just end like this. I mean, I should have expected it, but it still managed to pull the rug under me EVERY SINGLE TIME. Damn it.
