Cyberism is a text-based adventure game set in a Cyberpunk-style dystopian future where technology has become all-encompassing. You are Senna Bladesmith, a hard-boiled detective who must navigate a world of corporate espionage, government surveillance, and artificial intelligence.
Cyberism leverages the powerful Gemini AI APIs to build a world set using the general mechanics of Cyberpunk Red and an automated system for driving forward narration.
- Choice-driven narrative: Your decisions shape the story and determine your fate.
- Intriguing characters: Meet a cast of colorful characters, both allies and enemies.
- Cyberpunk atmosphere: Immerse yourself in a world of neon lights, gritty streets, and advanced technology.
- Puzzles and challenges: Test your hacking skills and problem-solving abilities.
- Text-based interface: The game is played through text prompts and commands.
- Turn-based system: You make choices and actions in turn-based fashion.
- Inventory management: Collect items and use them to your advantage.
