About Back to the Dawn
Escape a sprawling maximum-security prison filled with 47 unique inmates and uncover a city-wide conspiracy across two compelling character stories in this choice-driven RPG with 100+ handcrafted quests and multiple endings. With over 500,000 words of narrative, dynamic gang politics, and numerous escape routes, Back to the Dawn offers a replayable mystery where your playstyle—whether brute force, stealth, or manipulation—completely shapes your prison experience and ultimate fate.
Thomas the Fox is a journalist caught up in a dark conspiracy and who got thrown into a maximum-security prison for not playing ball. Working with your attorney friend on the outside, you must collect evidence to save yourself and the city from grave danger!Bob the Panther is an undercover agent who has never failed on any of his missions, but he is growing exhausted of this line of work and wants out. But a personal tragedy drags him back for one last job in prison. Experience a hardboiled tale of betrayal, vengeance, and truth!
This is an enormous prison with lots to do and many places to explore, but make sure you follow the rules, or at least try not to get caught!You’ll encounter all kinds of challenges as you explore your new environment. But will you be a model prisoner and just try to keep your head down, or will you leave a trail of chaos and destruction in your wake? It’s all up to you.
Meet a colorful cast of inmates in your prison, each with an interesting story to tell. You can either make them your friends or fight, bully and rob them into submission. Will you be part of a gang or a cunning lone wolf? Pick a side!Are you a tough guy who lets his fists do the talking, a thief who hides in the shadows, or perhaps a smooth talker who manipulates the scene? Develop your skills, craft tools to suit your style, and climb your way from “new fish” to “top dog.”
In a place built to break you, your sharpest weapon is your creativity and cunning. Every inch of Boulderton Prison might hold the key to your escape, from your prison cell to the infirmary, to the sewers and even the rooftops. Can you break free?
