Dr. Trolley's Problem Reviews

Some of the graphics are a little primitive but everything works, it's a cool idea and it's very well-written. I will say I'm not sure how well some of the statistics and scenarios hold up as actual ethical studies because at least a few times I made my decision based on what I thought would get the funniest response from the robot.

This game has a great core idea and the execution is good. The main issue with the game is the lack of an "I don't care either way" option. Sometimes I just wanted to randomly select any choice as I felt they were equal.

The game is a cool concept, but there is room for improvement, some levels are kinda confusing (people you love and people that love you, for example), some don't give barely time to read, let's not talk about thinking (employer that lays off employees seems to have way less time than others, maybe due to the read time). The results also are kinda confusing (perhaps you can keep the same "jokes" but label the tracks "A" and "B" between brackets). On linux (with proton) the trasition between the introduction and the "normal" levels is not working, i have to go to the menu and choose the levels i want, not sure if this is a linux only bug Also i would suggest some kind of local stats, so you can compare your results with friends TL;DR; The game looks pretty cool, but there is room for improvement

Boring situations, unnecessarily annoying controls, and inexcusable load times for a game this small. Felt like 95% waiting and 5% making actual decisions

Game explores a fun concept, however it has gameplay-breaking bugs that 1) lock decisions and make it impossible to replay levels, and 2) some levels the indicator is pointing the wrong way, and you only know when the result you DIDN't want to happen happens, which is a bigger problem because of point #1. Also a level when the decision was made for me, also related to bug #1, when we got Pierre's name, since it was the exact same level, and the decision was locked to the level's previous appearance. A game about CHOICE needs to allow choice to happen, and this just can't, not by design, but by bugs. Also, if you give us text to read you also need to give us more time to react to compensate for the time spent reading. Just no. Sadly, but no. At least game was even cheaper on sale, so no great damage there.

Interesting, but not great on a technical level. Audio volume keeps resetting to defaults, a number of menus are unresponsive, in some cases it's not possible to quit the game, a few of the scenarios have bugs; some don't register choices correctly, others don't record them correctly. Still kinda cool. If you're interested in it, you'll probably like it. I got it on sale for $1.24, but I don't know if I can recommend at the $5 asking price.

You can expect many things. But the answers in this game will surprise you always. I saw some negative reviews with the most popular vice, "boring." And it might be. But even though it's on Steam, it doesn't mean it's a game. This is a literal test. And tests have to be thorough; thus, it has a repetitiveness.

An interesting concept worth a few minute of play. However its pretty buggy and not a whole lot of content. Also disappointed that at no point did I get to hit a pedophile with a trolley.

Choose to save yourself. While the topic of the game is fine and 'fun' to play out, a few bugs and issues with the game lead to very UNFUN experiences such as the game interrupting your play to ask you to buy the game (that you already bought), an un-optimized 'freezing' when you complete a level, or the UI falsely indicating the wrong choice for your to choose from. (I'm sorry I ran over you mom, Dr. Trolley lied to me). Bought this for $1.25 and I still had more fun with a free quiz version developed from a university study (https://moralmachine.mit.edu/)

If nothing else describes Dr. Trolley's Problem, it's that the game is boring. The questions are repetitive and uninteresting, the game doesn't remember what problem you left off on, and the game often breaks for no discernible reason. I would push the developer of this game in front of a trolley to prevent this game being made.
