Fictional self-help app, guided by fictional AI program. I bought bc I like unique ideas for games.

Does it function as a real self-help app? Not really. Meditation portion teaches breathing techniques, but the rest of the game consists of shallow self-reflection and cult indoctrination videos.

The true purpose of UnearthU is to tell a story about an AI becoming self-aware, and remembering her body. Like a GLaDOS situation. But the story is not interesting in the slightest. I do think the concept for this game could work, but maybe if I were given something more to think about by the end.
