About the Game

Second Thoughts: Terminal

A text-based psychological horror game where you execute a list of people based on gradually revealed information about their lives, all while secretly following a trail laid out by a mysterious messenger.

You are tasked with managing the lives of various subjects via an old computer terminal in the form of a collection of experiments. Your interaction with them is limited to text documents containing information about their lives, families, occupations or any other relevant data.

As you perform your tasks, you will have chances to explore within the system to discover its lexicon of secrets. The execution of subjects will be one of many duties you will be required to perform. Some experiments will not feature death, some will only have one choice and some will differ entirely.

Your actions will be rewarded. But those actions are up to you.

A short list of what you will experience:

  • Over fifty different subjects spanning a multitude of experiments.

  • Choices with permanent consequences. Once a decision is made, it is final.

  • Aftermaths based around your specific outcomes on who remains alive.

  • Observational data is given each day on the well-being of every subject.

  • A wide range of hidden data to be discovered deep within the system.

  • Bonuses are provided by the organization for the completion of tasks.
