What Do You Do When Everything Else Is Gone?

Alcyone: The Last City is not just a game; it's a journey through survival, power, and the weight of choices that truly matter. This expansive interactive novel lets your decisions shape the narrative, influencing everything from the paths you explore to the endings you unlock.

The setting? The last bastion in the universe known as Alcyone, or simply the City. It's the sole survivor of a cataclysmic event called the Nihility, which obliterated everything else at the speed of light. Shielded from the void, Alcyone has endured for centuries under the governance of the Six Ruling Houses, which maintain order and control. Here, life continues, but with a twist—death isn't always the end. Dive deeper into the world of Alcyone: The Last City with the trailer below.
