Basically, you walk around in a poorly rendered room, type responses out, and interact with a married couple (Grace and Trip). The voice acting is pretty good , and the text parser is on par with some of the more intelligent internet chat bots. Sometimes what they say is shockingly perceptive and relevant!... Other times, it's just hilariously stupid. But in the end it's kind of predictable after 1 or 2 playthroughs, and the 800mb download isn't very justifiable.
(I'm Gonzalo - and keep in mind that Grace and Trip's responses are all spoken, recorded dialog!)

GONZALO
Tell me about Italy.
TRIP
Gonzalo, quit it, just drop the whole goddamn Italy thing already. (frustrated sigh)
GONZALO
Tell me about italy!
TRIP
(little sigh) (clears throat)
TRIP
Now, now, Gonzalo, in one word, what does this picture make you think of? (edit: the picture is of italy)
GRACE
Oh, please, Trip, don't put our friend on the spot like that.
GONZALO
Death.
TRIP
No, no, that's not it --
GRACE
Yeah, that's a fine answer, I like that...!
TRIP
No, no... Gonzalo, take another look, this says... what.
GRACE
How about suffocating.
GONZALO
... Love!
TRIP
Yes, that's it! Love! Romance! I knew you'd guess it!
TRIP
Uh! Everything in Italy was so romantic... the scenery, the food, the wine... oh, and the art! The art! Isn't that right Grace?
GRACE
(short petulant sigh)
GRACE
(little sigh) Gonzalo, I liked your answer better.

GONZALO
Want me to pee on your face, Trip?
TRIP
Look, just quit the flirting right now, I'm warning you!
