๐ค Founder Feedback
Social simulation games lack deep, realistic NPC interactions which limit player immersion and reduce relationships to superficial exchanges. We're transforming expectations by replicating the nuances of real-life dynamics using advanced AI that gives our NPCs unparalleled depth and responsiveness. This seed round accelerates the development of our vision to build the most immersive, rewarding and unique social sim ever created.Michael O'Connor, Co-founder TODAY
