Very good game. For once an interesting story whose plot does not feel contrived, and whose tone does not repel by being way too angsty at times and too sugary at others. Two negative points: 1. Far too much of the story is exposition, told by Jay to Shelley. It would be much more lively to either see it directly happening, or have it told afterwards by Jay but shown in flashback while narrated, instead of just reading and seeing Jay talking about it to Shelley, which also makes the visuals repetitive and uninteresting. SHOW, DON'T TELL! 2. The good ending (Spoilers!). When Jay regains Jiang's memories, he becomes Jiang with the addition of Jay's memories, instead of staying himself but slightly changed by the memories gained (or of becoming a mix of the two persons). It seems insulting to him, as if the life he lived as an android until now does not matter anymore now that he has the memories of a "real" person, so he can just ditch his previous identity. Worse: he loves Shelley because Jiang did, not because he HIMSELF does. And Shelley loves him because he has become Jiang, whom she loved, not because she see him as a person distinct from Jiang, whom she can love for who he is.

Really nice. Music and dystopian atmosphere are almost the same as in the movie. Philip K. Dick will be proud of. Ren'Py rocks!

About this app

What if you know you have dreams every night, but you can never remember what you dreamed of when you wake up? Would that make any difference to you? For Jay-Long, being unable to remember his dreams was his greatest torment.

After working for three years and four months (that means almost the entire life span of a normal android) on Mars, the android unit NeXT NGNAG17417 (also known as Jay-Long) returns to Earth in search of his maker, hoping she could put an end to his torment.

Only problem is that the presence of androids on Earth is against the law, which puts Jay-Long against the android hunters, a special police unit known as the Running Blades.
