About the Game

Take care of your child

Take care of your child's mental and physical health, craft diapers, pacifiers, and don’t forget about the milk.

Cyberbond

The best way to hide from a system is to stay within a system, in our city people often duplicate their own government standard neuromodulator implant and share with someone, but this is the first time it's done between a child and an adult... This unusual and risky gamble resulted in a quite literal biochemical bond between you and your child. Your well-being, as well as your child's, are tightly connected, who knows what consequences that can lead into…

Help other people as a doctor

Turns out that slums are in desperate need of implant-specialist, even more than the upper city. Continue your practice, help those who are in need. Establish handy connections, and be very careful with whom to trust. It's intense: you have to find time to prepare everything necessary for surgical operations and other medical procedures while taking care of your own child, and somehow manage your shelter.

Base/Resource management

In Muted you will have to manage your base and resources. Welcome to the abandoned railway station - your new home. Turn it into your own clinic and shelter. Plan out shelter upgrades for different rooms, place all the necessary devices and tools, take care of security systems, place traps and cameras and be ready to take in visitors, desirable and not really.

Find part-time jobs in the city

During night time, explore different districts of the city in search of various part-time jobs to get some resources, or if nothing else available get some sleep. If lucky you could work as a waiter at a night bar, deliver goods or help some factions with their deeds. Each action at night consumes action points.

Social stealth

Your social decisions have weight and consequences. Choose wisely what to say and whom to trust. Even a single carelessly spoken word to the wrong person can lead to a Citizen Population Control forces raid on your shelter or a junkhead ambush, or something more pleasant, like meeting a mysterious admirer…

Deep NPC interactions

Talking to someone? Can you trust this person? Check the saved in database key facts from the phrases you've been told to find out you are being lied to or not. But it works both ways, pay attention to what you say and keep an eye on the NPC's trust bar, we don't want to be suspected of something aren't we? And if all fails: hack someone’s Neuro Module? I hope he doesn’t notice. Blackmail? Should work. Bribery? Matter of price. Cold blood assasination? If that’s what needs to be done.
