Everyone Socrates Jones knows seems to love philosophy— everyone except Socrates himself. A simple accountant from New York, Socrates was never interested in philosophical questions or the art of arguing. But when he finds himself debating for his life against a queue of famous philosophers, Socrates Jones has no choice but to expand his horizons in a quest to find the nature of morality.
The classic game, rebuilt for Steam!
Face off in interactive debates against a host of famous philosophers— and a deer repellent salesman. Ask questions and present counterpoints to find problems in your opponent's ideas and cut through their NONSENSE!
A loving homage to a certain lawyerly game series, Pro Philosopher introduces its own mechanical twists to cross-examination gameplay, all wrapped up in a charming story and healthy helping of humor.
If you've never played Pro Philosopher before, now's a great time to discover why people enjoyed it the first time around— It's free! And fans of the original release can look forward to:
Greatly polished presentation!
New gameplay features!
Additional script polish!
