About

Three children wake in the ruins of a once-great city. They remember nothing. They share one dream — and something is following them. City of Children is a puzzle adventure adapted from the book, chapter for chapter: switch between Sashi (9), Eiji (7), and Yoshiko (5), because each can do something the others can't. No buttons, no lives, nobody dies — you play until you work it out together. Chapter One will be free. Join the waitlist and get the pre-order link the day it opens.

AI Summary

City of Children is a puzzle adventure game where players control three children with unique abilities as they navigate a mysterious city. The game is adapted from a book and features a no-death mechanic, allowing players to progress collaboratively through its chapters.

A source that found nothing is a measurement. A source that has not run is a gap. Neither means the launch lacks the thing.
