# The Pale City

Summer DB entity ID: 6da48984\-9205\-46ff\-b29e\-f3ad509dda09

Steam App ID: 1196580

A world where children aren’t born—they crawl out of tunnels in the ground\. A lone city, beneath the gaze of a silent god, home to strange cults who eat the dead\. The Pale City is the story of a mercenary hired to find the last, most powerful artifact of a sorcerer who disappeared lifetimes ago\. But the search pits him against powerful people in hidden places, towards a secret buried somewhere in terrible darkness\.   An Unconventional, Character\-Driven Narrative:   Written and designed by novelist Kyle Muntz, The Pale City tells the story of one man’s struggle against a merciless world and the emptiness inside himself\.   A Handcrafted, Semi\-Open World:  Every room has a purpose; every battle has meaning; every step you take tells you more about yourself\.   The Price of Survival:  Tense, unforgiving combat that rewards close observation and careful use of skills, where defense is often more important than offense\.   Multiple Difficulty Levels:  Brave normal mode to experience the brutal reality of life in a harsh world, or story mode if you'd rather focus on the game's storytelling, exploration, and lore\.   A Solitary Journey:   In a city without heroes, can you bear to see the consequences of your actions?
