Story description

Thirty days to pay a debt you do not remember taking. After that, they come for the hand you are using to read this.

Neon Debt is an interactive cyberpunk story set in Kestrel Row, a rain-slick megacity where almost everything is leased, even the implants in your body.

A month of jobs, favors and close calls

  • Take work from brokers, fixers and neighbors, and decide which jobs are worth the risk.
  • Repair, trade and maintain gear and implants that cost money to keep working.
  • Stay ahead of the clock while trying to find out who really holds your debt.

Sol Brannock sells you work and smiles too much. Dr. Obi runs a gray-market clinic and tells you the truth. Juno Kessa is a rival courier who knows more than she says. Why the debt exists and who holds it is different every time you play.

Neon noir with a pulse

Gritty, funny and human, with violence kept brief and a city that watches you.

A warning arrived right on time. Do you take the elevator?
