About Dates & Wires: Augmented Edition
The year is 1995, and you're newly single, ready to mingle... and fresh off the plane in Stradania, the dysfunctional micronation whose chief exports are pig iron, human misery, and radioactive souvenir mugs.
Your travel guides have steered you to the hottest nightclub in town. Now it's up to you to seize the evening by getting up close and intimate with Stradania's Most Eligible Vaguely Handsome Self-Absorbed Guys You Happened to Spot in the Club:
•
Dan - Half man, half existential crisis; subsists on a steady diet of Rimbaud, imported cigarettes, and unmarked pills.
•
Fixer - The kind of person whose opinions have opinions. Don't get him started on data tapes - you'll be there all night.
•
Sandman - Mysterious hacker of few words and even fewer discernible emotions. Smells vaguely of anti-flea shampoo.
•
Shitparade - The leading authority on terrible VR trips, forever on the lookout for somebody to inflict them on.
•
NoK00l - Stradania's techwear king. Once spent a month's salary on a package of "tactical socks," a fact he still brags about.
•
Jack - Your friendly neighborhood bartender, always ready with a word of encouragement and a novelty cocktail. Oddly unfazed by his club's creepy decor.
You soon realize all these characters have other things going on, something far bigger than trying to get laid on a Saturday night... But what is it? It's up to you to find out!

RATING & CONTENT
Dates & Wires contains minor language, references to drug and alcohol abuse, suicide mention, implied off-screen death in one of the bad endings, implied sexual content and clumsy BDSM practices in one scene.
Also contains harsh experimental noise and a few minor jump scare-ish moments.
