After arriving at their apartment, you hear Grace and Trip arguing about something, but it's not clear what their real problem is. As mentioned before, you will have to write your dialogue using your keyboard and ask pretty much everything you can think of.
The goal is to make them work through their problems by making both confess what really bothers them about each other. On the other hand, you can also provoke or upset them with bad remarks, or even try to uncover their most hidden secrets if you're skilled enough.
There's no actual limit at what you can say, but, beware, if you upset Trip, he will eventually throw you out of the apartment. In addition to that, you will sometimes have to interrupt both partners in order to say your opinion about everything they argue about and topics are not short on that matter. You can talk about anything you want, from criticism to praise, agreement and disagreement, flirtation, and even more sensitive topics like divorce or their love life.
However, no one has tried to copy the formula that garnered attention. No other system has ever allowed for such freedom of choice for its protagonists. Gamers may hope for a return to such limitless gameplay. There are several limitations to downloading the application. As it was released many years ago, it only worked on older models of Windows and Mac. The latest edition of Windows it worked on is Windows XP. However, they released an update to the software, which allowed it to be played on later Vista through Windows If you want to play on older systems like XP, you need to download the original package.
Other than that issue, it is a simple download and installation. It tends to crash, so it might take a while to get it installed and running. However, the game has always been free. The developers wanted to have an open-source game that was community supported.
The game is narrative-driven, with the purpose being the fixing of the marriage gone south. The couple, Trip and Grace , invite you over to enjoy an evening with them. Unknown to you, they are having conflict in their marriage. The game starts with you getting a call inviting you over. When you arrive at their place, you are free to type whatever you want to into the game system as responses. You can even flirt with Grace or Trip if your character is the opposite gender.
If you insult them, they will throw you out of the house eventually, or if you continue to flirt with one of the couples with the other one around.
The AI within the software shines in these randomized situations. The goal is to read the room and understand what to say. The same thing could be said in different situations and gain different results. The system is remarkable for its adaptability and pushes you to develop interpersonal skills in hypothetical situations. However, another way to play the game is to try to mess the responses up.
As the software engine generates all the responses, it is possible to confuse the system causing some interesting results. Of course, at times, that will backfire, and you will get thrown out. The AI has only so much understanding of people, so it might simply not work with something that you said. Often players are kicked out for saying random phrases or misspelling a single word with the engine not being able to understand.
Apart from that, there are other bugs that cause the game to crash or cause you to have a bad ending without expecting it. It is strange, but even though this came out in , no one has ever tried to replicate its totally free form narrative style. Facade is most often compared to Galatea, which is a good option if you want to experience a similar sandbox-like experience. Galatea is a story based around player choice.
While not as open-ended as Facade is, it has a well-designed response system. A more popular choice-driven narrative would be Detroit: Become Human. It has a wide array of alternatives that lead to various conclusions.
However, it is not as open-ended and does not allow people to insert whatever text they want to, but it does have far superior graphics and longer playability. Breaking the fourth wall is possible with The Stanley Parable. It has a better graphical landscape than Facade, however, it has a short playtime as it only lasts a few hours. Stanley does have an exciting storyline in which you can explore what happens when you deviate from the best possible option.
Detective Grimoire has an exotic feel to it. The narrative enables you to become a detective, allowing you to solve puzzles and order your thoughts to come to the conclusion and catch the bad guy.
