Uncanny Magazine Issue 29

An excellent short sci-fi story, putting together family ties, regret and grief in possible future simulation systems.

You can read it in linear form, through the Uncanny Magazine, July 2019, n29: https://uncannymagazine.com/article/c...

Or in an interactive form, through Sub-Q , The interactive magazine for interactive fiction, August 2020: https://sub-q.com/play-compassionate-...

I've experienced the interactive form, adapted by Aster F., and must say it works very well, making you feel like you're really inside the simulation.
