Our episode this week focuses on the 2018 walking simulator, and adventure game, Detroit: Become Human. This gorgeous game from Quantic Dream centers on three androids going through their own personal, very human, struggles in the year 2036. We discuss house cleaning simulators, deviating from your programming, blue blood, cop buddies, and meeting your evil twin.
