'Trolley Problem, Inc.' gets release date trailer
You might have come across the thought experiment known as 'The Trolley Problem' before; so how about a game based on the same premise to test your morals? This is exactly what solo dev team ReadGraves' Trolley Problem, Inc proposes and you will get to finally play a game that tells you if you're a bad person or not when it launches later this month.
With scenarios that challenge opinions on vaccinations, war, immigration, corporate espionage, religion… even the nature of decision making itself, Trolley Problem, Inc. will take players on a journey that could ultimately change how they view the world, themselves and ultimately the concept of free will.
Players are initially assessed as new recruits to Trolley Problem, Inc. – their suitability for employment determined through some initial introductory problem solving which only affects the lives of a few people and a dog. Two choices are offered – then a countdown begins. Pick the option you feel is right – but justifying your decisions to any family or friends watching you? Well, that’s your problem.
Trolley Problem, Inc. features:
- 55 intensely thought-provoking multiple-choice questions across a 90-minute playtime
- Streamer mode allows content creators to engage with a live viewing audience
- Multiple profiles allow local players to compare and discuss their choice – whilst global statistics reflect the choices players across the world have made
- References to the original philosophical papers
- A host of unlockables to discover throughout the game
- The strangest ‘Achievements’ ever featured in a video game
- Voice acting by Dead Ringers, Spitting Image and Skins actor, Jan Ravens
- Support in 10 different languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Arabic
