Description
About This Game
NOTE: The game currently contains the first episode out of 4. Later episodes will come at a later update.
Enter a world where advanced AI live amongst humans, and play as a Drone Whisperer - a specialist in data extraction from hostile AIs. In a dragged-out war against a rival nation, the Army has captured an enemy drone rife with intel that can help turn the tide to your side. It is your job to extract this information from the drone. The fate of a nation depends on you.
Characters and objects in Wetware are lovingly crafted and animated to resemble stop-motion animation, making a unique art style.
In Wetware, events and plots advance by time. You can do anything in any order you want within a day, but you only have several days to make an impact, so make it count!
There is more than one outcome to work towards, and there are multiple ways to work towards them. Without spoiling too much, be prepared to make some tough choices throughout the story.
