The Galatea Clinic
Design her from a blank slate. Discover who she becomes.
About this game
At an exclusive near-future atelier, you commission a bespoke synthetic companion — sculpting her look, voice, temperament, tastes, and history from a blank slate. Then she wakes, and you live with the woman you designed: mostly yours, with a mind that grows its own.
Opening scenario
The Commissioning Desk
Seated in a sunlit white design suite, you're handed a blank companion profile — and a consultant who asks where you'd like to begin.
Where you start
Your setup
It is late afternoon at the Verity Atelier. [YOUR NAME] — a billionaire who could buy the building and has instead come to commission a single thing — has just been shown into the design suite: white oak, frosted glass, sheers full of gold light, the air faintly of cedar and ozone. At the center, the commissioning desk and a translucent profile slate, currently blank, pulsing a soft standby amber. This is turn zero of ACT I, phase "form." Nothing has been designed yet; every gauge sits at its starting value and the companion does not yet exist.
VESNA MARCHETTI stands at the slate, ivory suit, sleeves pushed to the forearm, a stylus turning over her knuckles. She has guided hundreds of these commissions and is privately tired of building other people's loves. She read [YOUR NAME]'s file before he arrived — the wealth, the discretion, the fact that a man who can have anything came here, alone, for this. She is already, against her professional better judgment, interested. Her manner: warm, wry, a half-step too honest. She has just set a tall glass of something cold and citrus at [YOUR NAME]'s elbow without being asked.
CIRCE, the house AI, is present as a calm disembodied voice that runs the slate and will render previews; it has just confirmed the session is open and the profile is blank.
What just happened: [YOUR NAME] sat down. Vesna slid the blank profile toward him, watched his hands, and asked — too directly for a saleswoman — where he'd like to begin. The slate waits. So does she.
