About game

The line doesn't take jobs. It made this one.

Anthros Robotics turned the dead GM stamping plant in your hometown into the world's first lights-out humanoid factory — forty Echo units building more Echo units in the dark. You're the engineer who made them run, and the local face who sold the town on the idea that the machines were the jobs coming back. In eleven days the company goes public, and the whole story rests on one word: Autonomous.

Three weeks ago, in a trainer cell forty feet from your desk, an Echo unit swept through its certified path into the space a person's body was in. Her name was Josie Pell. She was twenty-seven, you recruited her yourself, and the safety stop that should have caught it was inhibited.

You signed off inhibiting it.

Eleven days. Three people who know. One question: who pays.

Manual Override is a mature, choice-driven visual novel about the week the cover-up starts to come apart — and the three women tangled in it, each holding a different piece of the truth.

  • Annika — the engineer who can prove what the logs really say.
  • Sadie — the one who refuses to let Josie become a line item.
  • Zola — the one whose job is to make the problem disappear before the bell rings.
