Socrates Jones: Pro Philosopher

Socrates Jones: Pro Philosopher is a free-to-play visual novel/debate game that originally launched as a Flash game in 2013 and was remade and released on Steam on March 28, 2023. The Steam version received a bonus argument in May 2023, a back-ported fixes patch in October 2024, and Mac support on October 23, 2024. All of this post-launch work was explicitly tied to the development and release of the sequel, Pro Philosopher 2: Governments and Grievances, which launched in 2024. The developer was clear from the start that this is not a live-service game and no season pass or ongoing paid content was planned for the original. The sequel (a separate game) is where the team's primary development focus shifted, and the updates to this game were side effects of shared engine improvements. The most recent developer activity related to this specific game was a fan argument competition announced on September 22, 2025, inviting community members to submit short debates that Intelligible Games would build as a free standalone app — not as additional content for this game itself. The competition referenced characters from "Pro Philosopher 1 or 2," indicating the developer is still engaged with the series, but no new content for this specific game has been announced or is pending. With Mac support delivered, the sequel shipped, and no announced future content for this title, the game appears complete as of October 23, 2024 — the date Mac support launched and the last meaningful content milestone for this game was reached.
