About the Game

Culture is contraband. You’re the supplier.

Cité Alexandrie is a unique Narrative Management game in Virtual Reality (VR), plunging you into an alternate 1980s France, where books, music, and comic books are strictly forbidden. From your high-rise tower, you orchestrate a clandestine cultural network. Recruit allies, trade prohibited goods, and defy the Cultural Interdiction Brigade (CIB). Every choice is an act of resistance. Are you ready to become the invisible heart of freedom?

Cultural Resistance

  • Clandestine management: run your network from an intuitive and physical VR diorama. Rotate it, explore it, and plan your cultural smuggling operations.

  • Strategy & logistics: recruit lookouts, delivery agents, and resellers. Manage your stock of forbidden items (Audio Tapes, Fanzines) without drawing the attention of authorities or rival gangs.

  • Deep narrative immersion: the gameplay is inseparable from a rich storyline. Each team member has their own history. Your actions will have direct political and personal consequences on the Cité’s life.

  • A unique dystopian world: explore an alternate 80s France, inspired by works like Fahrenheit 451 and the moral complexity of The Wire.

  • Optimal VR comfort: specifically designed for a seated, motion-sickness-free experience, allowing total immersion into the management universe.

You have only one year to develop your trafficking, forge delicate alliances, and make heartbreaking decisions. Will you trust the local politician? Will you risk your team's well-being to distribute a revolutionary book?

Choice is yours. Don't wait!

Add Cité Alexandrie to your WISHLIST so you don't miss any news about its release and can start building your underground network from day one.
