Overview
Fahrenheit is an adventure game where every decision has a direct effect on the story path of an unfolding mystery. In this paranormal thriller, New York City is stunned by a series of mysterious murders that follow the same pattern: ordinary people become possessed and kill absolute strangers in public. Lucas Kane becomes another one of these murderers when he suddenly kills a stranger in a men’s bathroom. Lucas must uncover the supernatural forces behind his crime before the police find him-or he loses his sanity.
A good deal of publicity was generated from the developer's rejection of conventional game genre labeling for the title; Quantic Dream prefers to brand it as the first truly "interactive film" rather than an adventure or third-person action title. This game features a large amount of motion captured animation as well as branching story lines, split screen cameras (used in a manner very similar to the television series 24) and an interface designed to be intuitive and realistic. Event triggers in the game are also mainly time-based, as opposed to the more common player-initiated progression found in most games. A majority of critical reviews were enthusiastic, and considerable praise has been given to the developers for their attempt to reinvent and reimagine the "adventure game" genre. Adventure games are a type of computer entertainment programs and video game, characterized by investigation, which may include exploration, puzzle-solving, interaction with game characters, and have a focus on narrative rather than reflex-based challenges. ...

Lucas Kane The game's primary male protagonist, and the character around whose actions the story revolves. The game opens with him stabbing a stranger to death in the restroom of a diner while in a mysterious trance, and follows his efforts to discover who or what drove him to the murder while simultaneously trying to elude the authorities investigating the case. Raised on the remote Wishita military base by his scientist parents (the death of which severely affected him 10 years previously), he now works as a technical expert for Naser & Jones bank in Manhattan. Since his childhood, he has had periodic clairvoyant visions, the disturbing nature of which it is implied had a severe emotional impact on him as a child and drove him to isolate himself from others. These visions, apparently long dormant, suddenly increase in frequency following the events at the diner, accompanied by a dramatic increase in Lucas's physical strength and the emergence of telekinetic abilities. He is voiced by David Gasman. A protagonist is the main figure of a piece of literature or drama and has the main part or role. ...

Carla Valenti The primary female protagonist of the game. A police inspector with the NYPD, Carla is one of two detectives called upon to investigate the murder committed by Lucas. She is known among the other members of the department for her intense work ethic and commitment to her job (which sometimes tend towards excessive, as her devotion to her work is in part her way of compensating for her lack of any personal life, her only friends being colleagues and her neighbour Tommy). Naturally inquisitive and completionist, Carla tends to brood over cases which are going nowhere, and will spend long hours poring over evidence in the hopes of finding one vital clue which she may have missed. She is also highly claustrophobic, and is prone to panic attacks when inside dark, enclosed spaces. She is voiced by Barbara Weber-Scaff. The New York City Police Department (NYPD) , the largest police department in the United States, has primary responsibility for law enforcement and investigation within the five boroughs of New York City. ...

Tyler Miles Carla's partner, he has a much more lackadaisical attitude towards life, although he is very devoted both to his job and his fiancée, Samantha Malone ('Sam' as he calls her). His relationship with her has always been close but has also been under constant strain due to her terror of him being hurt in the course of his job. The long hours and increasing cold have begun to sink his spirits greatly, and this latest murder case hasn't helped, leaving him to reconsider life as a police officer and perhaps leaving for Florida with Sam to run her parents' store. His hobbies include playing basketball, video games (which he often talks about or makes references to, including multiple instances of metafiction) and collecting 1970s memorabilia and vinyl Motown albums. He is voiced by David Gasman.

Markus Kane Lucas' older brother, a priest at Saint Paul's Church. He worries about the current state of affairs involving his brother, but his faith prevents him from seeing very much past the fact that Lucas has murdered a man, despite his best efforts. When they were kids, Markus tried to get Lucas, who was something of a loner, more involved with the other children on their military base home. He is voiced by Doug Rand. His fate is decided by the player.
Tiffany Harper Lucas's ex-girlfriend who shows up the day after his killing in the restaurant. It is suggested by some of Tiffany's comments that she broke up with him due to his intimacy issues. He still has feelings for her and it is possible to rekindle their relationship in the course of the game. She dies in the middle of the game after the Oracle destroys the Rollercoaster in the fun park with her and Lucas on it.
The Oracle A man of unknown identity who has begun appearing in Lucas' visions. He has only been seen wearing a gray hooded coat which hides his face, leaving his true nature a mystery. He is later revealed to be a Mayan oracle over 2000 years old, working for the Orange Clan to find the location of the Indigo Child. He is voiced by Paul Bandey. The Maya civilization is a Mesoamerican civilization, noted for the only known fully developed written language of the pre-Columbian Americas, as well as its spectacular art, monumental architecture, and sophisticated mathematical and astronomical systems. ...
The Indigo Child/Jade A "perfectly pure soul, never before incarnated" who holds the secret of the meaning of life. Her coming has been anticipated since the beginning of time, and numerous factions are competing to gain possession of her, as the person who hears her secret will wield control of the entire universe (who this person will be depends on the actions of the player). She appears as a young girl wearing the uniform of the catholic orphanage where she lives. When the question What is the meaning of life? is asked, one of a variety of questions may be implied, such as: What is the nature of life (and of the universe in which we live)?,[1][2] What is the significance of life?,[2] What is the purpose of...
Agatha An elderly, blind, paraplegic woman who, using her psychic abilities, helps Lucas understand what happened to him at the diner.

Story The game is set in January of 2009. The story begins on a cold New York night, when Lucas, in a possessed trance, stabs a man to death in the restroom of an East Side diner and then flees the scene in confusion. His crime is set against a backdrop of similar ritualistic murders and falling temperatures (hence the name). Valenti and Miles are charged with solving the case and tracking down Kane. The player is placed in control of all three, and occasionally of Markus, over the course of the game, and thus is given the chance to sometimes aid one character in opposing another. 2009 (MMIX) will be a common year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

The game's plot is also unusual for its manifold branchings and options. The creators describe the plot as "elastic," capable of much stretching to accommodate the player's choices and decisions across all three characters, although it still follows a set plot thread.[1] For instance, in the opening scene, the player is placed in control of Lucas and left to deal with the aftermath of the murder. The player's choices, such as what to hide, what to leave alone and how to escape the diner, determines what clues Valenti and Miles find and how the patrons recall him, and thus the ease with which they later discover Kane's identity. (There is a specific mission where the sole purpose is to figure out all the clues.)
The game features three endings with the outcome dependent solely on the results of the final scenes. However, the game features many more scenes and game-play sections, depending on the choices that the player makes.
Themes and recurring motifs - Nietzchean themes - Along with both Nietzche's famous book "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" appearing occasionally during the plot, and a largely existential plot (at least initially) of Lucas finding himself doubting his surroundings, abilities and himself (and his religious uncertainty; though he claims he does not believe in God, the first person he talks to about his experiences is nonetheless a man of the cloth, and after escaping from the police he immediately goes to a church), Fahrenheit contains minor references to other Nietzchean themes. One is the function of the Elastic Story itself, which matches the notion of eternal recurrence as follows:
1. On an initial playing the player will feel in complete control of their actions. Friedrich Nietzsche, 1882 Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (October 15, 1844 - August 25, 1900) was a highly influential German philosopher. ...
Eternal Recurrence is a philosophical concept formulated by Friedrich Nietzsche. ...
2. On a subsequent playing they will initially feel the same way, due to superficial alterations to the plot (for example, behaving slightly differently in how they deal with the restaurant murder)
3. However, as the story progresses they will feel more and more powerless (manifesting itself as frustration) as how many of the character's actions are decided for them.
This can be interpreted in one of two ways: mere self-indulgence on David Cage's part (by forcing the player to follow his storyline and at the same time claiming that the storyline is malleable) or an examination of the notion of eternal recurrence from a god's perspective. The player in the game takes the role of a limited, non-omnipotent God, observing and controlling the characters, but nonetheless being aware that a lot of what occurs is predecided by coincidence and the actions of characters which the God does not control. However, the characters being controlled have of course no awareness that what they are doing is being repeated (for the thousandth or millionth time, depending on sales of the game). David Cage David Cage is the founder of computer entertainment based Quantic Dream. ...
Another theme of this nature is that which is considered to have marked Nietzche's finest hour: that of the Übermensch (overman): considered by some to be a spiritual continuation of the human spirit, considered by others to be a physical evolution of man. Fahrenheit's innovation in this regard manages to show a variety of interpretations of what the Übermensch might mean, as demonstrated by several characters: The introduction to this article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. ...
The introduction to this article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. ...
1. It may mean the above spiritual continuation of man (Jade, the Indigo Child, whose soul has never been incarnated)
2. It may mean a literal mutation of human DNA which makes man thus more powerful (Lucas, whose body was altered by the Chroma and who for all intents and purposes survived death)
3. It may mean the personification of a theory posited by some evolutionary biologists: the role that technology plays in human evolution. This theory has been used to explain everything from a greater presence of Alzheimer's disease to the motives of extra-terrestrials in alien abductions (see "The Uninvited" by Nick Pope). The personification of this in the story is members of the Purple Clan, who are cyborgs and not subject to many of the dangers of the human world. Alzheimers disease (AD) or senile dementia of Alzheimers type is a neurodegenerative disease which results in a loss of mental functions due to the deterioration of brain tissue. ...

A final interpretation of the game through a Nietzchean perspective is the direct parallels between his notions of "master" and "slave" morality. Lucas frequently describes himself as a "pawn" and is as such confined to his traditional slave morality. The Oracle, however, and other members of the Orange Clan are true masters of the universe, and as such have created their own morality.
Control Console versions of the game eschew most of the traditional methods of control, making minimal use of the face buttons on the controller, instead using twin analog sticks for all player actions. The left stick controls movement of the character, and the right is used for context-sensitive actions. For instance, when Lucas approaches his table at the diner in the opening scene, one direction may cause him to take a seat, while another makes him examine his bill, and a third lets him pick up his drink and take a sip. The available options are displayed with simple diagrams at the top of the screen. Some more complex motions, such as climbing a fence or spinning a yo-yo in "around the world" fashion, require controller motions akin to those used for special moves from conventional fighting games. An analog stick from the GameCube game controller An analog stick, sometimes called thumbstick, often mistakenly referred to as a joystick, is an input device for a controller (often a game controller) that is used for two-dimensional input. ...

 Carla in an interactive conversation During the tutorial of the game director David Cage instructs the player to move the thumb-stick slowly when opening a door, to maximize immersion, making it clear the prevalent use of thumb-sticks in the game was intended to increase immersion. The rare occasion in which the face buttons are used never directly control character actions, rather, the buttons (the Y, B, and A, or triangle, O and X, on Xbox and PS2, respectively) are used to interact with menus and user interface. This includes changing between characters, navigating menus in computer systems, and displaying the "mental health" of the character (an action which is available, but never necessary and quite probably will never be used by the player.)

On the PC the game can be controlled by keyboard and mouse, with key movements and mouse gestures used in conjunction in lieu of analog control sticks, but PC gamepads with analog sticks are also supported, and recommended. This article does not cite any references or sources. ...
There are also large action set pieces, which are completely scripted, but do require reflexes to complete. During these scenes, two circular diagrams with colored segments (resembling the electronic Simon game) are superimposed over the full-motion animation, each one corresponding to one of the analog sticks. The diagrams depict sequences of control inputs, which the player must mimic in order to maneuver the character out of danger. It is similar to the game-play of Dragon's Lair or the "Quick Time Event" sequences in Shenmue. The game also requires feats of endurance, involving the alternate pressing of the left and right shoulder buttons as rapidly as possible. These L-trigger/R-trigger sequences are generally used to evoke (and cause) physical strain, such as running or swimming. In film, a set piece is a usually elaborate sequence which sees either a chase, fight, or other action taking place in an original and memorable way. ...

The game provides each character with a "Sanity" meter, which goes from full ("Neutral") to empty ("Wrecked") and represents the character's mental health. Many of the game's events (such as the opening, where Lucas Kane comes over to the prone body of his victim) subtract points from the meter, but everyday or habitual activities (such as eating, urinating or receiving good news) will add to them, as well as scenarios in which the character makes a revealing discovery or action that helps him or her in some substantial way. An empty Sanity meter leads to an end depending on the character (Carla and Tyler will give up their badges, and Lucas will either turn himself in, or commit suicide) and a Game Over. // For eat or EAT as an abbreviation or acronym, see EAT.

Finally, conversation is also implemented by the game, with the right analog stick being used to choose dialogue options. This is sometimes accompanied by a "Suspicion" meter which is affected by the player's choices, indicating how suspicious the character who Lucas Kane is conversing with is. For example, failing to give convincing answers when being interrogated would raise the Suspicion meter. In these situations, if the player does not make a choice within the allotted time limit, the game will make a default choice for him, or else the conversation is abruptly ended. It should be noted that it is impossible to leave a conversation without the minimum amount of information necessary for the characters to progress in the game, and if one continually strays too far from the topic's intended resolution, the game will automatically make the choice for him. Examples include the cop in Joe's Diner telling the player, as Carla Valenti, about the waitress and the table at which Lucas was sitting.
Soundtrack The soundtrack was a well received aspect of the game, receiving praise from various sources.[2][3] Impressed by his previous work on soundtracks for David Lynch films, David Cage after several failed experiments with other composers decided to enlist Angelo Badalamenti onto the project. Cage did not want the soundtrack to be composed of generic orchestral pieces in the vein of John Williams or Carmina Burana, but instead more emotional and atmospheric, something that he felt Badalamenti achieved.[4] Further licensed pieces of music were used in the game, these could also be unlocked for later listening: David Keith Lynch (born January 20, 1946, in Missoula, Montana) is an American filmmaker. ...

North American version changes The original title of Fahrenheit was changed to Indigo Prophecy in the United States and Canada. The change was made to avoid confusion with the film Fahrenheit 9/11.[1] Scenes depicting sex (one of which is interactive) and other "adult content" were removed from the North American versions so the game would receive a "Mature" (17+) rating. Both the name change and editing were made at the request of the publisher.

A likely cause for the requested changes was due to the infamous Hot Coffee mod for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which garnered unfavorable media attention and controversy in mid-2005. Although Fahrenheit's sex scenes are not explicit (less so than a typical "R"-rated film), Quantic Dream claims that the cuts don't "dramatically affect" the plot of the game. The deleted scenes are completely ancillary to the plot. Even so, the game has been re-released in Canada and the USA under the title Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Director's Cut. This version of the game, available only for Windows as a download, is uncut and rated Adults Only (18+).
