Description
Dive into a gritty animal metropolis torn apart by crime and corruption. Play as a wrongfully convicted journalist or an undercover investigator forced into a brutal prison system.
With allies working on the outside, gather evidence, chase down every lead without leaving a trace, and fight to save not only your own life, but the very future of the city itself
Pick Your Path, Break Free
Choose between two protagonists: Thomas, a reporter caught in a web of lies, or Bob, an undercover agent sent deep into the prison system.
Each storyline delivers over 20 hours of engrossing mystery, where your every choice matters. Navigate a prison ruled by three powerful gangs, interact with 48 uniquely crafted inmates, and uncover layers of intrigue through dozens of memorable NPCs.
With over 100 handcrafted quests, multiple escape routes—each with its own risks and rewards—several possible endings, and more than 500,000 words of gripping narrative, Back to the Dawn delivers a deeply replayable RPG unlike anything you've experienced.
What Kind Of Prisoner Will You Be?
This is an enormous prison with lots to do and many places to explore, but make sure you follow the rules, or at least try not to get caught!
You’ll encounter all kinds of challenges as you explore your new environment. But will you be a model prisoner and just try to keep your head down, or will you leave a trail of chaos and destruction in your wake? It’s all up to you.
A Colorful Cast
Meet a colorful cast of inmates in your prison, each with an interesting story to tell.
You can either make them your friends or fight, bully and rob them into submission.
Will you be part of a gang or a cunning lone wolf? Pick a side!
Open Character Growth System
Are you a tough guy who lets his fists do the talking, a thief who hides in the shadows, or perhaps a smooth talker who manipulates the scene? Develop your skills, craft tools to suit your style, and climb your way from “new fish” to “top dog.”
Plan Your Prison Escape
In a place built to break you, your sharpest weapon is your creativity and cunning.
Every inch of Boulderton Prison might hold the key to your escape, from your prison cell to the infirmary, to the sewers and even the rooftops.
