About This Game

A broken android — called a "marionette" — is found crying weakly in a cardboard box in a dark alleyway. The player character brings her home and repairs her as best they can. The repair is only the beginning: she has much further to go before she resembles a person. The game is about that process — the incremental work of making something mechanical into something that functions like a human.
