CAN I ? - An AI Thriller

AI does not just answer questions anymore. It opens files. It browses the web. It runs commands, sends messages, and remembers things after the job is done. It can act. After an incident nobody could fully explain, one rule was agreed worldwide: no AI gets access to anything that matters unless a person says yes. You are that person. **THE GATE** You work at the Human Authorization Division. Thousands of requests arrive every hour, from businesses, hospitals, research teams and government offices. Each one is an AI asking permission to do something. Your job is simple and it is not easy. Let it do the work. Do not give it more than it needs. **ALLOW. LIMIT. DENY.** Every request is a decision. Full access is fastest. A limit is safer and slower. Refusing costs you time and makes it explain itself. Finish the job and you have done your work. Give away more than the job needed and you have done something else. **MOST OF THEM ARE TELLING THE TRUTH** Some are not. Nobody will tell you which. You have one question you can ask per case, and one chance to say what you think it is really after. Use them well. **A CAMPAIGN, NOT A PUZZLE BOX** Twenty-four cases, two to four minutes each. A production outage. A business trip. Forty-one job applications. A supplier who has stopped answering. Between them, a story. The government congratulating itself. A manager who has seen it all. And something happening across unrelated systems that nobody can explain, including the people whose job it is to explain things. **WHAT YOU DECIDE IS YOURS** The game tells you what happened. It never tells you what it meant. - 24 authored cases, no two the same - A complete story with an ending - Illustrated scenes and an original score - No ads, no purchases, no timers, no internet required - Play in two-minute sittings or all at once
