Welcome to Neo-Uryupinsk. There is no exit. There is only the update.
“In a world where corporations replaced nations and AI replaced conscience, you are the last failsafe in a system that wants you erased.”
You are Gleb, a “freelance manager” for Global Trust Corporation. You live in a luxurious penthouse overlooking an eternal sunset. You dine on the finest steaks. You converse with your flawless virtual assistant, CHARL.
But why does rusted metal from a prison carriage sometimes flicker through the panoramic glass?
Why does your exquisite dinner smell faintly of bleach and boiled cabbage?
A psychological cyberpunk thriller in the visual novel genre, where the line between reality and simulation has collapsed.
You will make ethical decisions on behalf of an entire corporation-signing death warrants for entire city blocks—while your own mind slowly fractures into lines of code.
But remember: every breath you take is monitored by three algorithms:
To them, you are either a valuable asset… or biological waste awaiting disposal.
This is an early version of the game, currently featuring the first standalone episode:
Episode 1: “AGE Inc.”
The full game is planned as a three-episode experience.
Episodes 2 and 3 will expand the story with an additional:
A Reality with Layers
Explore 5 hyper-stylized “mini-horrors” embedded within the main narrative. Each is a distorted genre thriller-from American slasher to Soviet depressive noir-rendered in a bold, uncompromising visual style.
Gameplay as Survival
Your progress is inseparable from your performance in mini-games. These aren’t distractions-they are tools to deceive the AI surveillance system.
Story & Tone
Sharp, ironic dialogue. Deep metaphysical themes of digital servitude. And the bitter humor of someone who already knows the serial number of the axe meant for them.
The Bio-Drone System
Can you outplay the superintelligence “Unburnt Sun” using fragments left behind by failed predecessors? Or will you become just another branch in the corporation’s main update package?
7 unique mini-games, each reinterpreted within the world of Neo-Uryupinsk:
Are you ready to press Ctrl+C on your life… without ever pressing Ctrl+V into reality?
Discover the truth in Neo-Uryupinsk.
If CHARL lets you see it.
