About Cyber City 2157: The Visual Novel

✦ AI summary

Navigate a surreal dreamlike city where you create artificial humans while piecing together fragmented memories of cosmic visions, experiencing a haunting blend of cyberpunk aesthetics and philosophical mystery. This retro pixel art visual novel weaves arthouse film influences, postmodern storytelling, and atmospheric soundscapes into a 4+ hour meditation on reality and existence that feels like remembering games that never were.



You wake up looking at the cell and trying to remember a dream you have seen last night. There are only vague memories in your head - It was something connected with the cosmos and with the frightened astronaut's face. You have no time to think - you have to go to the work. There you create a perfect simulations of a human, called Molds.

So your journey through the parks, cemeteries, suburbs and dreams begins. Your adventure is in the City where the sun never sets.

It's a surreal mix of classical visual novels, odd choices, cyberpunk, mysticism and everyday life of a man lost in a rapidly changing reality.

You'll see the game, inspired by the numerous arthouse films, postmodern literature and dreams that come closer to dawn.

This game is the memory of the games that have never existed.

Features:


  • 150 background images, some of them are animated, made in the old-school pixel art
  • Graphics, based on a simulation of the old systems and monitors (mostly on the Commodore 64 and MSX)
  • Dive into the crazy world full of mysticism and cyberpunk
  • The atmospheric and varied music (40 songs)
  • The total duration of the game: more than 4 hours
  • Just read, watch, listen to and ponder the riddles of the game world
  • Steam Trading Cards

    Thank you and happy reading!

    This entire game honestly feels like a huge ragebait but in an extremely unoffensive way, as if the writer just kept sneaking in nonsensical twists with zero relation to what'd happened prior purely for the sake of trolling. Everything about this game is abrupt, bizarre and makes the reader question whether their confusion stems from lack of understanding or if the writing is indeed mere (mostly) grammatically correct word salad. Additionally the story is very short, maybe <=1h (the rest of my playtime is just card farming lolol) and although there are different routes and and endings, none of them contribute anything valuable for comprehension, the script could get cut by 70% and not miss any substance. However it certainly has charm, I'm really fond of the visual presentation (the haters in the reviews just don't get it) and overall the surreal atmosphere is very solid. Plus the story concept seems intriguing (debatable whether it even follows a concept) and the deranged randomness following the illusion of something profound just works well in a silly way. I enjoyed following the plot without questioning it, like at first I was going through a futuristic version of relatable da…

    A weird visual novel, with a really weird story that seemed to just end out of nowhere.

    Just no. I've played for a bit and i already found many problems such as, - Lack of keyboard shortcut. - No log of story/conversation. - As other reviewer said, there's fair amount of writing/translation issue. - The pictures seems to be stock photos while the soundtrack/music doesn't really fit the story. I've no idea whether the story would be better/more interesting latter. But the creator should just release the story as novel instead since it's clear there's no serious effort/budget to make proper VN.

    Bleugh. Very short. Atrocious English translation. Bad writing that prevents me from deciding whether its 'story' is open-ended or not finished.
