About This Game

The Therapist is a dark, emotionally grounded narrative game about “running” therapy sessions. The player alternates between selecting pre-generated candidate reframes under time pressure to keep the client stable, and then—at the climax of each session—typing a personal final reframe without a timer. The quality of that typed response determines whether the player earns enough session success to progress to the true next chapter.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

The Therapist was developed with the assistance of generative AI tools. AI was used to assist with programming and to generate certain visual and audio assets included in the game. The game's core concept, narrative direction, game design, mechanics, and creative direction were conceived and developed by the game's creator. AI-generated assets were selected, edited, integrated, and directed as part of the game's overall creative process.
