For Those Unaware
In Pragmata, the player will control two characters at once — the space engineer Hugh and the cute android Diana. They must join forces to escape the lunar research station, which has been captured by AI-controlled robots.
The core of Pragmata's gameplay is its unconventional battles, where the player must not only shoot at the opponent's weak spots but also use Diana's capabilities to hack the robots. This process is implemented through a simple but engaging mini-game, simultaneously occurring with Hugh's actions, thus the player effectively controls two characters at once, narratively enhancing the bond between the protagonists.
Hugh and Diana's main goal is to evacuate from the station and return to Earth. However, humanity has done everything possible to hide the incident that occurred on the moon and does not want the androids to return, and as a reminder, Diana is one of them. This places the main characters in a moral dilemma, and likely the outcome of the story will depend on the player's decision.
