First Game to Respond Intelligently To English

Bot Colony is currently in development by North Side, and are using a Kickstarter campaign in order to fully fund the title.

The game allows you to interact with other characters through your own conversation.

“You’ll be the lead actor in a dialogue that previously was only romanticized in movies”

“Bot Colony trailblazes a new way of interacting with games: while current story-telling is based on dialog trees – you click on canned dialog lines written by someone else – in our game you discover the story and you orient yourself using your own words. This novel ability to speak freely with the characters increases your immersion into the game, and truly makes you part of the story.”

Bot Colony is an episodic sci-fi adventure, set on the tropical island: Agrihan. The game’s story is set in 2021 and faces over population, poverty and dwindling resources. The global markets are collapsing and advance robots are being utilised to become multi-purpose workers.

The Nakagawa Corporation have leased the island and built up urban and industrial buildings and largely populated it with learning robots. Humans freely mix with the robots which are used as a test bed for a future settlement on Mars ‘Bot Colony.’

North Korea’s KHT Corp. are trying to infiltrate the Nakagawa Corporation and you must use the Bot Colony to investigate the disappearance of three new-generation robot sensors.

“Bot Colony offers the player a credible experience of interaction with artificial intelligence.”

The public Beta will start in November 2013 only on PC.
