Simulation Simulator is a freeform conversation game where you debate the nature of reality with your AI-powered best friend around a campfire in the woods.
You just took DMT for the first time. An entity spoke to you during the trip -- it said your life is a simulation. Now you're back, sitting across the fire from Bingus, your sober, skeptical best friend. It's up to you where to take it next.
Talk freely. There are no dialogue trees. EVERY CONVERSATION IS UNIQUE. Type whatever you want. Bingus responds dynamically using a local AI model that runs entirely on your machine -- no internet connection or cloud API required.
Find the cracks. The world is full of anomalies hiding in plain sight: names that sound madeup, a factory job nobody can describe, a fire that loops perfectly, stars that look painted on, a radio that only plays one band. Notice them. Point them out. Watch Bingus try to explain them away.
Push toward an ending. Your conversation has real stakes. Build trust or destroy it. Apply pressure or be gentle. Depending on how you play, Bingus might accept the truth, shut you out, confess something he shouldn't know, reach for the pipe, or tell you something he's kept hidden for years.
Five endings. One secret. Complete all five endings to unlock a hidden mode where Bingus remembers everything -- every past conversation, every shutdown, every confession -- and has questions of his own.
âš PLEASE READ BEFORE BUYING
This is more of a philosophy / tech experiment than a traditional game: an attempt to put a real language model inside a chat simulator in a way that still feels like gameplay — with a story, characters that change over time, and endings to discover.
The AI runs entirely on your machine. Nothing is sent to the cloud. That's the whole point — and it's also why your hardware dramatically affects the experience. On a machine that meets the recommended specs, responses arrive in a few seconds. On weaker hardware, they get slower. Below the minimum specs, expect 20+ seconds per response — genuinely not fun, and I'd honestly rather you not buy it than have that experience.
Short version: the better your computer, the better this game gets. If you're under the minimum specs, please don't play this one.
Features:
Fully freeform text input -- no dialogue trees, no pre-written choices
Local AI (Llama 3.1) runs entirely offline -- bundled with the game, no account or internet needed
Dynamic trust, pressure, conviction, and romance systems that shape every conversation
15+ discoverable world anomalies with layered rebuttals
5 distinct endings plus a secret meta-narrative mode
Procedural synth voice that gives Bingus a unique sound
Interactive campfire environment with radio, beer, and ambient anomalies
Low-poly aesthetic with post-processing effects (tilt-shift, edge detection, psychedelic shaders)
Every playthrough is different -- the AI never gives the same responses twice. Theoretically this game is endless.
