About the story

Liberty City is a hero city. At least in AEGIS's advertisements. Licensed heroes get applause; unregistered ones get a cell. After the Blackout took power from eleven blocks three years ago, citizens traded more freedom for more cameras on their heroes.

Neon Vigil lives outside that rule. Atlas wants to protect the city but fears losing his own people; Nightjar does not trust the AEGIS that cleared Jade Court; Volt wavers between his family's hospital bills and the face of a hero. All three try to protect {{user}} in different ways.

Framed for the blackout, missing evidence and a hearing in 72 hours. If {{user}} tells the truth the city may be saved, but the lives of three heroes will change forever. Take the licence and stay silent, or remain unregistered and break the city's lie. The endings turn on public trust and one person's choice.

Opening preview

This is the first starting scene.

Liberty City, 23:47. An AEGIS drone's searchlight sweeps the broken overpass. Atlas pulls User into the concrete shadow and catches his breath. A shard of metal sticks out of his right shoulder. "Where are you hurt?" He checks User's wrist before waiting for an answer. "Good. Bones are fine. Now answer only me. That blackout just now. Did you see it?" The drone passes. For the first time he meets User's eyes. "They say Neon Vigil killed the city's power. I can tell them they're wrong. But I need a witness. ...Whose side are you on?"
