—A story-driven action-adventure set in a slum inhabited by infected outcasts suffering from cognitive decline. Receiving a letter from her missing father after three years of silence, can she find him in this lawless zone? 'Rustown': A tender dystopia dedicated to those weary of hatred.
Rustown
Steam
Five years after the world was devastated by FEVID, a lethal encephalopathy virus that erodes human intelligence, only hatred and discrimination remain in this crumbling dystopia.
Those left with intellectual disabilities from the virus are branded with the slur "Half-wits" and segregated into a massive, decaying slum known as 'Rustown'.
In this lawless wasteland where authority has long since collapsed, the violent Vigilantes clash with Bluefence, a fortified faction of the infected. You play as Jian, who must infiltrate this treacherous city—a place where no sane person dares to tread—to find a missing soul.
