In case anyone was curious: "tsarstvo bozhiye vnutri vas" is Russian for "Kingdom of God inside you" and "dulce et decorum est pro patria mori" is Latin for "It is sweet and fitting to die for one's country" @ Jonas Kyratzes This is beautiful, thought-provoking, and encouraging. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and hard-work with us!

This was a very well thought out and very well executed game. It is rare to find a game that forces you to think about the truth and that doesn't try to jam it down your throat. Bravo 5 stars and favorited.

Loved the haunting music :) I'm thinking maybe I should have read through the journal entries and stuff... I only have a vague idea of what the story's about. Needs to be a next part :o

I loved this game. I enjoyed it greatly. Although, I haven't caught every single piece of the puzzle, listening to what SGDS says has been both an almost personal spiritual experience for I can completely relate (100%) to what SGDS says about life. It truly is beautiful, and it is nice to see this game's creator relating to that as well. If only more people would realize the same way...this whole world..hell, this internet.. would be a completely different 'entity' (for lack of a better word) today. And I yearn for that realization..alas, I'm afraid that's not possible, the world is already going down its already set path...

When you read the credits and half a dozen pages of notes after playing a game, and still feel dissapointed that the author hasn't provided more of an insght to the making, you know it's something pretty out of the ordinary. Good job, basically.

I found this game to be truly amazing. No, not game, this is a story. I keep trying to find words to summarize it, to tell how I feel abot it, but I've never been very good at that. I guess I can say I feel enlightened by the knowledge and concepts put into this story, and I feel sorry for the people that would play this and say it's stupid. Not because they don't find it plausible or because they don't agree with the logic orthey're offeneded. I feel sorry for the people who say this is stupid simply out of arrogance because they don't understand this or because they can't even comprehend the beauty behind this. 5/5 It is truly amazing. I've played Gregory Weir's games before, and I'm npt surprised to find out that he helped to make this masterpiece.

i approve. i think the game might be lacking in the subtleties and finer points but the underlying ideas make this a 5/5 its not a game, its a story

Great.
The first story which does not picture an Artificial Intelligence to be the pure evil who has gone totally mad or, on the other hand, the savior of mankind, but as a intelligent being who suffers quite "human" problems.
However, I found the ending quite... unsatisfying. With that, i don't mean that the ending of the story is bad, what i want to say is that it leaves me curious and i had hoped for more information. Although it may be a banality compared to the story, the question about the personality (and the future) of the protagonist remains.

It keeps erasing my inventory...I don't know if this is supposed to happen, but I cannot do anything. Once I pick up one thing or move to another room or turn, it gets rid of everything I have collected. Help?

This game is more like a book. I enjoyed it for what I thought it was worth. But hey, if you're trying to say something, this definitely beats the comment section on youtube. 5/5

This was incredible, the plot is so controversial and pure yet so simple. Regardless of what you may say (yes you Jonaz) this is an amazing piece of work.

This game is too good to only have a little over 70,000 plays. Perhaps people dislike reading too much text, but I found every word gripping, and definitely worth reading. The amount of philosophy in the game was amazing, going through such a broad amount of topics about life. The game has inspired me to think a little bit more, and for that I have to thank the developer for bringing such a game to the public. Again, you have my thanks, if few others.

This is amazing, I LOVED IT! the writing is superb, Kongregate reallllly needs to make an achievement for completeting the game-only achievable if all logs are read at least once-I have to say up until this point I haven't found a flash game that was this psychologically stimulating nor as well written- Thank you Jonas Kyratzes for the experience-one that I hope others will indulge in aswell =)

I dunno but i think it's somehow bugged, i deactivated (or activated) the information override mode, but it won't open the "don't go beyond this door"-door, i even used the walkthrough second for second :(

I got it! The SGDS has a soul after all! We play as his soul, trying to fix the mess. After he fixes everything, he is free

eggyegg: for passwords just scan everything and to combine them you just need to find common begging or end and put this common parts over eachother

I wonder if I'm the only person who sits and reads every single note on every single panel so I can appreciate the hard work and story put into the game.

What a great game! At first I thought that the AI succeeds in saving the world, but then I read the comments, pieced together the frozen time with the "this is a dream" in binary, the fact that the AI shouldn't be able to walk around, and all those references to pain and agony and calls for help that are found inside the texts like reality creeping in and realised with a heavy heart that this is a dream that the AI just made up to comfort itself while the world was being destroyed. In any case, beautiful. True art.

SDGS_12.tmp and SDGS_56.tmp describes life very accurately. I think that this machine started to watch and analyze humans, became too dangerous and smart, so they had to shut it down.xXxcolbyxXx's theory is some-what relevant to what I'm talking about. The A.I. had gained a conscious, able to think and decide for itself between right and wrong.
