A Hardboiled Story Straight Out of the Movies
Enter a dark and dangerous city overrun by crime and corruption. You’ll play as either a journalist falsely accused of a crime or an undercover agent trapped within a harsh prison. Working with contacts on the outside, you must collect evidence, pursue every clue secretly, and fight for your survival – and the future of the city.
Pick Your Path, Break Free
In Back to the Dawn, you can play as either Thomas, a journalist tangled in deceit, or Bob, an undercover agent infiltrating the prison system. Each character’s story offers over 20 hours of captivating mystery where your decisions shape the outcome. You’ll navigate a prison controlled by three rival gangs, meet 48 distinct inmates, and unravel a complex plot through a cast of memorable characters.
Featuring over 100 unique quests, multiple ways to escape – each with its own challenges and benefits – and several different endings, all woven into a story with over 500,000 words, Back to the Dawn is a highly replayable RPG experience unlike any other.
What Kind Of Prisoner Will You Be?
This prison is huge, with plenty of activities and areas to discover, but it’s important to follow the rules – or at least avoid getting caught! You’ll face various challenges as you get used to your surroundings. Will you be a well-behaved inmate, quietly serving your time, or will you cause trouble and leave a mark? The choice is yours.
A Colorful Cast
Get to know the unique prisoners in your jail – each one has a story. You can choose to befriend them, or you can intimidate, bully, and steal from them. Will you join a gang, or will you try to survive on your own with cunning and skill? Choose your path!
Open Character Growth System
Do you prefer to solve problems with strength, stealth, or persuasion? Hone your abilities, create the gear that fits how you play, and work your way up from a newcomer to a leader.
Plan Your Prison Escape
Okay, so I’m totally hooked on this game! It’s set in Boulderton Prison, which is designed to completely crush you, but the way to get out isn’t just brute force – you need to be clever and creative. Seriously, everything in that prison could be useful for escaping. I’m talking your cell, the hospital, even the sewers and rooftops! It’s all about finding those little details and using them to your advantage. The big question is… can I actually break free? I’m determined to find out!
