About the Game

Deep in the thick fog of The Dark North, near the shores of an unknown continent, the faded lights of a forgotten city tower above the rolling moors. Hundreds of empty tower blocks stretch across the landscape, the ocean waves crashing into their crumbling foundations, overshadowed by two enormous concrete pillars, the Control Towers.

Deep in the city’s barely beating heart, a lone intelligence awakens.

The Denizen is a small-ish, story-driven third person shooter/adventure game set in an abandoned brutalist city now ruled by an all seeing AI, with a directive to eliminate all that may compromise the security of the city. You control Alea, an organic, man-made being created to inhabit the city, trying to find their purpose in this strange, artificial world.
