My Name is (Not) Alice
After waking up in a vacant medical room, surrounded by two TVs and a red button, and with no memory of who you are or how you got there, you (Alice) must indulge your captor in a twisted game to win your freedom.
Either figure out which of the two people in the other rooms is pretending to be human, or become suspected yourself and never escape.
What strange experiment have you walked into, Alice? Or is that even your real name??

VERY cool game! I absolutely love this idea of progression through replay. This is using intfic in a creative, innovative way!
Music is lovely and creepy.
UI could be improved - if you click the "mobile friendly" option on the itch upload it won't force it into horizontal on phone. There's really no formatting here to necessitate UI concerns, which means the game should automatically format for mobile.
The type effect gets old QUICK, especially on mobile since we can't skip. For a game designed around repetition, delaying the text read is the biggest thing which will hinder people from playing to the end, since they are revisiting text.
Check out cicy's live block macro for your footer. This will let you dynamically update suspicion even if you're inserting more text into a passage.
Writing is really solid - I love the cynical humor. Pleasant to read with several moments which made me literally laugh out loud.
Overall, excellent job!
Let me find you a link for another twine game which used a similar replay concept, might be good for ideas.
