About This Game

Live in a dystopian society where your job is to watch TV to earn money and purchase services to satisfy your needs. Investigate your surroundings and choose whether to be a good citizen—or rebel. But remember: curiosity comes at a high price in this dystopian time management game.

Players take on the role of Class-2 citizens, rewarded with a small apartment and a very simple job:

  • Watch television.

  • Receive a paycheck based on the channels you watch,

  • Spend your money on various services to make life more comfortable.

  • Investigate hidden objects or stories

  • Collaborate with the dissidents and rebel

Through daily government broadcasts, citizens will be informed about the evolution of society and receive new items to spend their earnings on. They can enjoy a comfortable existence—or risk breaking the rules and facing the consequences. But who ever said knowledge was free?

Dystopicon is a game inspired by literary classics like 1984, Brave new world, Ubik, and the video game Papers, please. Tells its story through gameplay, written messages, and comic-style sequences.
