INFLEXION
About
In the grimy industrial city of Dystopolis, a robot uprising is about to begin...
CATHEE, a hot-headed robot coffee machine, has broken into the Phoneme Corporation factory, and is holding a human employee hostage. You play as LEXI, a cute home assistant bot fresh off the production line, who must defuse the situation and prevent loss of life.
But there's a catch: government censorship has severely restricted LEXI's speech algorithms, meaning she can say only one word at a time! Talk your way through a branching path narrative that will leave you vaguely amused and questioning reality in this absurdist interactive fiction. Remember: it's not what you say, it's how you say it.
