More about this game
Unfold the Truth: Tommy is an interactive visual novel where you navigate three public scenarios involving unseen disability. Your goal is to choose dialogue responses that balance educating strangers with maintaining Tommy's dignity. The core loop involves reading the situation, selecting from three dialogue options, and seeing the immediate outcome. The game tracks your Awareness and Dignity scores, awarding up to three points in each category per choice. The run ends after completing all three chapters, giving you one of three final ratings based on your total score.
Tips
- Each choice awards up to 3 points in Awareness and 3 points in Dignity. Aim for responses that balance both metrics for the best outcome.
- Sometimes the best response is not the most explanatory one. Over-explaining, like detailing his disability at the café, only awards 1 Dignity point.
- To earn the highest rating, Truth with Compassion, you need a combined Awareness and Dignity score of at least 16 points across the three chapters.
FAQ
- What are the three scenarios in the game?
- You will guide Tommy through three distinct chapters: using an accessible toilet at an arcade, taking a priority seat on a crowded bus, and bringing his working service dog into a café.
- How is the final rating calculated?
- Your final rating depends on your combined Awareness and Dignity scores. Scoring 16 or more points earns Truth with Compassion, while 12 to 15 points earns Calm, Clear Advocate.
- What happens if I make a bad choice?
- There are no game-over states. If a choice yields fewer than 5 combined points, you will hear an awkward sound, but the story continues to the next chapter to show the outcome.
