What DEX is about
Dex wakes up with no memories and unable to manage his own emotions. By his side is Lisa, an esteemed psychologist and the creator of the "Device for Emotional Experience" neurochip, who sets out to help him develop his emotional intelligence.
Step by step, Dex learns to identify what he feels, regulate it and relate to others with empathy and assertiveness. And you learn right alongside him, practicing in exercises and simulators that recreate real-life situations.
But it won't be that simple: an unexpected discovery about himself puts his progress at risk. Will Dex manage to keep going? Emotional intelligence training with a story you'll want to finish.
