About City of Broken Dreamers: Book One

About City Of Broken Dreamers



Welcome to Book One of the City of Broken Dreamers.

You play as a Ghost, a bounty hunter for hire. Ghosts often have the backing of the rich and powerful and are thus almost immune to the law. Among Ghosts, you are considered one of the best, but behind that lies a man running from his troubled past. Your next mark is a young girl with a hidden and troubling secret. And when you face her, you’ll face your demons as well.

You will meet a large cast of characters, both allies and enemies. How you interact with them will be up to you. Do you keep it professional? Ditch them? Or take them up on a night of hot, steamy, -- well, you get the point.

Are you looking for a visual novel with a bit more edge? Where story and characters come first? A world with a rich backstory? This will all play out in a “City of Broken Dreamers”. The game is dark, it is fun, it is sexy, but most importantly it is engaging. Every choice you make will have an impact but there is no wrong choice. You decide how to play. Create your own path in the neon-soaked streets of Los Angeles 2042.

  • Hours of current gameplay with replayability.
  • Scene replay theater.
  • Glossary of terms that expand the lore of the game.

Gameplay



The game plays as a visual novel. Much like a choose your own adventure book.
Every choice has impact. Never in the game will a choice come up that does not have some impact further down the line. There are no wrong answers. So, you can play the game how you wish, and see where things turn out.

Each woman in the game will relate to you differently based on how you approach them. They have a score and a lust value. Depending on the lady, these can open up new scenes and even more options.

You have a hidden stat that represents your anger. This comes into play in many areas of the game. Not only in your dialogue but even in how you may react in certain situations.

There are bonus high resolution images of the women that are hidden throughout the game that you can find when a notification pops up explaining that a clue can be found. These are not needed for the game but are a nice extra for you to hunt down.

After a lewd scene has completed it will be added to your replay theater that you can access again from the main menu.

Book One is the first installment with the next installment being available as DLC. The first book contains the first seven chapters where you can expect to find anywhere between 7 to 9 hours of content to enjoy.

Great story with believable characters. Good variety of paths. Excellent atmosphere. Beautiful models. Sexual encounters have decent variety, but animations lack flow and seem unnatural/stiff. Overall, the story keeps you engaged and is well written.

Story has good visuals, is unique and has plenty of content to keep you entertained for many hours to come. The game kind of pushes you into one direction, but you could pursue romantic relationships with the majority of girls, though you need multiple re-runs to see all scenes.

One of the best AVNs that I've played. Great art, models, writing, and overall storyline. This is one of the few that keeps you invested because you want to know what happens in the story and with the characters, but the sex is a nice bonus. I love that I'm late to the party, because I actually got to play a finished game which is rare for these. My only complaint is having to pick a girl at the end. If you're ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ everything in sight throughout the game, it doesn't really make sense to act like you were searching for true love. 9/10

um..... the MC doesn't have a body or identity to speak of what so ever. Completely generic experience. It's like everyone in the game should just call you "gamer" and ask you "are you enjoying the game?" that you are directing from your computer at home... oh hell no.
