Alcyone: The Last City has now made its debut on Android, Windows, macOS, Linux/SteamOS, and iOS. This ambitious project, developed and published by Joshua Meadows, began as a Kickstarter campaign in May 2017. After years of dedication and expansion, the game is finally available for players to explore.
What’s the Story?
Set in a bleak, dystopian future, Alcyone: The Last City is the sole remnant of a universe that has crumbled. The narrative is deeply influenced by your choices, with every decision you make shaping your journey. There are no do-overs; only consequences and the lessons learned from them.
You step into the shoes of a 'rebirth,' a character who has experienced death and been revived in a cloned body with restored memories. You have the freedom to choose your background, either as a member of the ruling elite or as someone struggling to survive.
The City is a harsh environment, governed by six Ruling Houses that enforce a rigid class system. The wealthy enjoy luxury while the less fortunate fight for survival. Tensions are high, and the city is on the brink of chaos.
The backdrop of this world is a result of catastrophic experiments with hyperspace and faster-than-light travel, which led to the downfall of humanity. Now, Alcyone: The Last City is all that remains, teetering on the edge of collapse.
What Does Alcyone: The Last City Look Like?
The game boasts stunning visuals and intricately hand-drawn digital art that perfectly captures the gritty, shattered atmosphere of the world. The narrative dynamically evolves based on your choices, offering an expansive story with nearly 250,000 words. Take a moment to watch the trailer below to get a sense of Alcyone: The Last City.
One of the standout features of the game is its commitment to accessibility and inclusivity. The developers have included high-contrast, color-blindness-aware palettes, labeled art elements, dyslexic-friendly fonts, and full compatibility with screen reader systems like VoiceOver.
Alcyone: The Last City offers seven core endings and five different romance options, including pathways for those who identify as aromantic. The game is cross-platform, meaning a single purchase grants access across all supported devices. For more information, be sure to visit the official website.
