AI: The Somnium Files – nirvanA Initiative Hidden Bats ARG Progress; Kairo & Iris Decision Game

The AI: The Somnium Files – nirvanA Initiative Hidden Bats ARG has genuinely heated up once more. The official Hidden Bats Twitter account has initiated a poll to save either Kairo Goshiki or Iris Sagan. It is undeniably simple, and I can’t help but wonder what will possibly happen if Kairo wins. Iris has a presence in the actual AI: The Somnium Files games, so will she survive regardless? I’m hoping to see Kairo win this poll so we can see what mysteries lie beyond that veil.

You can participate in this ongoing poll below. Note that it concludes tomorrow at 7 PM PDT/ 10 PDT.

◆Balance Experiment◆
This will decide Iris and Kairo's fate.

▼Rules
In this poll, vote for Iris or Kairo. The most votes is rescued. In a tie, both will be rescued.

Two lives hang in the balance. The choice is yours.

Deadline: 6/15 7:00 PM PDT#HiddenBats
