himself will tell you repeatedly during your playtime. In the latter sense, the game's constrained optimism - that we will have a manned base of operations more than a year away but be unable to craft an AI that pass for human, two hundred years from now - is comical to say the least.īut that's beside the point, as T.O.M. The initial plot goes like this: Turing is woken from cryosleep because the ground crew on Europa have mysteriously gone missing, and left behind a series of puzzles that need creative solutions, something only a human is capable of. And not satisfied with the reference to the test for artificial intelligence entities, the game places you into the role of an engineer named Ava Turing.

He is the eyes, and brains, of a manned space mission to Jupiter's moon Europa in the 23rd century, and a constant presence for your time in the game. It's a bit poetic that the first face you see in The Turing Test, a new first-person puzzle game from British game developer Bulkhead Interactive, is that of a robot named T.O.M.
