Alcyone: The Last City has made its much-anticipated debut across Android, Windows, macOS, Linux/SteamOS, and iOS platforms. This game, developed and published by Joshua Meadows, began as a Kickstarter campaign in May 2017 and has now blossomed into a fully realized experience after years of dedication and expansion.

What’s the Story?

Immerse yourself in a grim, dystopian future where Alcyone: The Last City stands as the final bastion of humanity. Your decisions drive the narrative, with each choice carrying weighty consequences and no option to undo your actions. You embody a 'rebirth,' a character resurrected in a cloned body with their past memories intact. Choose to be part of the ruling elite or struggle as a commoner.

The City is a harsh environment, governed by six Ruling Houses that enforce a stringent class system. The affluent revel in luxury while the underprivileged battle for survival. This volatile setting teeters on the brink of chaos, fueled by past experiments in hyperspace and faster-than-light travel that catastrophically failed, leaving Alcyone as the last remnant of human civilization, barely clinging to existence.
