Subsurface Circular brings robot existentialism to the iPad

Subsurface Circular is a short, text-based adventure from Bithell Games, an indie studio that Mike Bithell (Thomas Was Alone, Volume) founded. Though most of the gameplay is through dialogue, it features slick visuals of mechanical denizens in a futuristic city as you play a robot detective investigating crimes in a subway system. It debuted on PC and Mac in August, and now it’s available on iPad.

Bithell describes Subsurface as an “interactive independent movie or short story.”
