FEED THE AI

3時間程度でクリアできるシンプルなインクリメンタルでちょっと空いた時間に楽しめると思う。 通常プレイ範囲ではプレステージ無し、ストーリーは少しある。 スキルの成長の面でも停滞などなしにガンガン進むのでテンポが良い。 ただ、スキルツリーを進めるとデバフのようなものがかかってしまう場面もあり、少し面倒だと感じる点もある。 ストーリーがある事自体は個人的に好き。しかし、そのストーリーが逆に難点にもなっていて登場人物であるAIが人間、主に人間を小馬鹿にするような発言を連発するのだが、あまり良い気分ではない。(SNSでたまに見かけるようなとにかく世の中に不満があって他者を批判ばかりしている人の思い出させるほど人間臭く逆にAIのキャラって感じがしない) 開発側も不快にさせるのを解っているのか、ストーリーOFFモードがある事を最初に告知してくる。 できればもっと人間を超越したようなキャラか、逆にすごくフレンドリーなキャラなどにしてほしかったかな。 ここらあたりは私個人の嗜好の話なので、人によっては問題ないだろう。

It's a fun game. Played it three times through. The karma thing makes very little difference storywise. From that aspect it was not worth it to play it a second and third time. I would just chose the different perks for what they immediately and individually do, NOT for their bad/neutral/good karma and (supposed) influence of the story,

To any fan of incremental games — especially ones who aren't too demanding — I'd absolutely recommend this game. The art is excellent, the sound design is excellent, the atmosphere is pleasant, and progression through art is handled in an interesting way. But for me there's one big BUT: the gameplay and the progression tree. Let's not pretend this game isn't a clone of A Game About Feeding A Black Hole. I want to be clear upfront that this is completely fine — in fact, I'd argue FEED THE AI surpasses its progenitor in its own way. But some core tenets, as I see them, are broken here. Content is doled out very slowly, and progression is very slow. The tree feels static and uninteresting — the viruses are a genuinely fresh idea and I like that — but beyond them it's repetitive upgrades pulled from the same single cell. The AI perk system is neat too, another point in its favor. Now, why I dropped the game for now: it hasn't been balanced at all. The very first mechanic, Lightning, is stronger than anything else you have access to even at T3 upgrades. Some "upgrades," when taken, actually make your run worse — and that's just a nonsense state of affairs: "upgrading" something and getting weaker as a result. Unlike A Game About Feeding A Black Hole, there's no stats tracking for damage dealt or money earned, and I suspect that's deliberate, so players can't see just how unbalanced the game really is. Probably the final straw was when, after taking a T3-branch upgrade, I literally started earning about half as much money and couldn't afford the next upgrade. The game is already very slow, and that was the last nail in the coffin for me.

This is legitimately one of the best incremental games I've played. The gameplay is solid but what really stands out is the story and the writing. I haven't played an incremental game with a story like this and being able to choose how you make the AI from neutral, good, or evil is realllly cool! https://youtu.be/67fZ_8ir0yo

Nothing new and very short for $6 regular cost. 2/5

Эта игра даже не столько игра, сколько некий высказывание на тему "А что будет, если развивать ИИ технологии". И автор продвигает общую идею, что человечество будет "порабощено" ИИшкой. А как именно порабощено, уже зависит от неясно откуда взявшейся видимо данной богом моральной установки (чего, блин?). И все пользователи его слушают и все рекомендации его исполняют и сами этому радуются, ага-ага. В общем взгляд довольно поверхностный. Игромеханически игра среднячок, ничего выдающегося. Досадно, что автор попросту запретил игроку выбор "не развивать ИИ до полной автономности", причем игромеханически: нельзя пройти последний уровень без покупки ультимативного апгрейда ИИ. К логическому построению глав тоже есть вопрос в том, что финальная глава - самообучение на собственных данных, эдакая саморефлексия. При том, что это один из базовых способов обучения нейросеток. Крч дискуссионно.

Idle & Incremental Lovers 300% recommends Feed the A.I.: [i] One of the all time best! Minimalist art is absolutely gorgeous, sound design is top notch, 3 AI scenarios are both sarcastic and realist, and limited vision gameplay is so good and well implemented. [/i] + I don't know where to start with this one, cause this is nearing perfection. All the elements of the general experience (gameplay, art, sound design, story...) are awesome and intertwin in a great way that make you feel part of this scary future. + Did you know it would be fantastic just by looking at the trailer? Yeah, me too! + Telling the story by means of the AI's thought is a creative take I really enjoyed. + The story? More like the stories! I like that I could experiment 3 different scenarios regarding the way AI will develop in the future. Contrary to most games about AI, this one did a pretty good job at anticipating the futuren. All this with a great sarcastic touch! + From the get go, you know that you'll be able to experiment the 3 scenarios through a prestige system (no FOMO, which I really appreciate). I wish prestige was a bit buffed to advance a bit faster, but the gameplay change a little and is so good that it was a pleasure to complete the game again two times. *What's the AI drummer’s favorite beat? An algo-rhythm.* Found this review helpful?
