Desenvolvido by Pilgrim Adventures, the same studio responsible for The Deed and Space Pilgrim, Sentience: The Android’s Tale puts the player in control of a newly activated android on a colony on the planet Akritas. The plot involves interactions with 24 different colonists, where each conversation and decision directly affects the course of the story and the fate of the characters involved.
The plot explores themes such as machine autonomy, relationships between humans and artificial intelligence, as well as issues of trust and moral conflict. The android can follow orders received or pave the way for more unpredictable results depending on the choices made by the player.
