Eliza is a narrative-driven visual novel developed by Zachtronics that explores themes of technology, mental health, and human connection. Set in a near-future world, the story follows Evelyn Ishino-Aubrey, a former programmer who helped create an AI-based counseling system called Eliza. Years later, she returns to work as a “proxy,” reading scripts generated by the AI to clients seeking therapy. As Evelyn reconnects with old colleagues, friends, and family, players must guide her through difficult conversations and emotional choices.
The game focuses heavily on dialogue and character development, offering a thought-provoking experience rather than traditional gameplay mechanics. Through branching conversations, players influence relationships and shape Evelyn’s personal journey. The minimalist presentation, detailed character art, and atmospheric soundtrack create an intimate storytelling environment. Eliza raises meaningful questions about artificial intelligence, corporate ethics, and emotional well-being. It delivers a mature, reflective experience for players who appreciate deep storytelling and choice-driven narratives.
