"Is this testing whether I'm a replicant or a lesbian, Mr Deckard?"

Seriously though, I think that line from Blade Runner (which you're clearly referencing, of course) hints at the problems with using a supposed "normal" baseline to decide who is or isn't worthy of scrutiny, which is a particularly relevant concern these days (because of the increasing use of potentially biased machine learning for these sorts of surveillance purposes).  Seems like your game pursues this idea further.  I like it, it's a good use of the interactive fiction medium to make the player consider a particular idea.

Thanks! After watching the movies recently I thought it would be an interesting game idea to challenge the player to decide what is and isn't human, what is a "normal" empathic response and so on ...
