The Developer Says...

Everyone Socrates Jones knows seems to love philosophy— everyone except Socrates himself. A simple accountant from New York, Socrates was never interested in philosophical questions or the art of arguing. But when he finds himself debating for his life against a queue of famous philosophers, Socrates Jones has no choice but to expand his horizons in a quest to find the nature of morality.

The classic game, rebuilt for Steam!
Face off in interactive debates against a host of famous philosophers— and a deer repellent salesman. Ask questions and present counterpoints to find problems in your opponent's ideas and cut through their NONSENSE!

A loving homage to a certain lawyerly game series, Pro Philosopher introduces its own mechanical twists to cross-examination gameplay, all wrapped up in a charming story and healthy helping of humor.

If you've never played Pro Philosopher before, now's a great time to discover why people enjoyed it the first time around— It's free! And fans of the original release can look forward to:

Greatly polished presentation!
  • Higher resolution assets across the board!
  • New 16:9 layout!
  • Improved UI during debates. Improved UI in general!

New gameplay features!
  • Controller Support!
  • Achievements!
  • Dynamic conversation logging!
  • The groundbreaking ability to save whenever you want!

Additional script polish!
  • A few weirdly worded lines are a little less weird!
  • Em dashes instead of double hyphens! Double hyphens are a categorical evil.
  • Perhaps a little something extra somewhere...
