Cyber Obsession rules. It's like reverse Doki Doki Literature Club-- in that you play as a sentient AI chatbot who is trying to prevent your human from killing himself -- plus a bit of climate activism.

It's a bit surreal playing a game where the main character lives in a self-contained city-in-a-building and is afraid of owning a cat because the last one he had escaped the complex and died because the air quality is so shitty; when the very same thing is happening right where I live because of all the wildfires. Yesterday my summer job cancelled all activities for everyone because the air quality in our area was 500, which is off-the-charts godawful. An air quality reading of 500 means you effectively smoke a pack of cigarettes per five minutes spent outside.

So uh... very immersive atmosphere (literally) this game has.

Go play it. It's free to download.

the sci-fi game paradox is real

okay, hear me out—why are we STILL stuck in the “grim dark future” paradigm? like, can we PLEASE explore more than just the end of the world or mega corporations? imagine a sci-fi game that leans into the absurd—like a space opera where the most epic battles revolve around cosmic karaoke competitions! it’s 2025, and i’m ready for games that embrace the weird instead of recycling the same dystopian chaos like it’s on repeat. give me bright colors, alien fashion disasters, and quests for the perfect intergalactic dessert!

sci-fi games that flip the script

ever think about how we always assume sci-fi means lasers and spaceships like what if we had a game where the big twist is you’re a quantum gardener nurturing alien flora on a distant planet like imagine using plant magic to communicate with other life forms or a dystopian narrative but instead of rebellion you’re cultivating hope through gardening or okay picture a game set in a dark future where everyone’s obsessed with VR but you’re just a maintenance bot trying to fix glitchy simulations and your only weapon is a can of digital spray paint like why can’t we break the mold and create something totally unexpected

the sci-fi game cycle of clichés is driving me bonkers!

why is it that every new sci-fi game feels like it’s stuck in the same orbit? we’ve got endless dystopian futures, space marines, and AI sidekicks, but where are the games that flip the script? imagine a universe where aliens have the emotional depth of a cat and humans are just their confused pets! let’s break free from the predictable patterns—give me weird, give me wacky, give me quirky world-building that blows my mind and tickles my soul!
