Pērc Lunar Ascendant PC

Take on the role of David De Silva, a simple man who did the right thing in an impossible situation, only to find himself the first mayor of lunar city Artemis.

It’s the year 2131. Earth’s nations are united under a singular federation, and the people of this new society are subdued into practicing their professions under a new and undeniably competent supervision: The AIA.

Artificial Intelligence Absolute is a next-phase AI model that has become a global extension of the United Earth Federation in governing the people of the planet.

All human endeavor is surrendered to the oversight of algorithmic perfection in order to ensure flawless operation. There are many that dislike the idea, and for them, there is a place of refuge; a safe haven.

Artemis, originally built as an extraterrestrial mining outpost, is now the de facto promised land for a new way of life, a step back in the right direction, a self-proclaimed course correction toward the natural way of things.

For some time now, the dynamics between the United Earth Federation and Artemis have been in growing turmoil, and it will only get worse if the status quo persists.

Humankind is at a crossroads that will shape the future of the species.

And you, David De Silva, are a simple man.

Or you were, until today …

Engage in detailed discussions with various faction representatives to gather insights on matters concerning the city’s future. Serve as the final decision-maker on how to allocate the city's limited resources.

Choose between independence and alliance by siding with either the Lunar Independence Movement or United Earth Federation. Invest in the city’s living conditions to increase your popularity, or focus on the long-run and invest in self-sustainability, but brace for possible negative outcomes.

Decide whether to allow advanced AI systems into your city for the sake of convenience and comfort, or denounce the digitalist future and preserve the natural way of living. Beware: the people of Artemis do not take kindly to AI, even if it’s for their own well-being.

Discover how the hidden ties that bind humanity’s fate are paving the way toward an inevitable future, and the dark agenda behind the rapid rise of AI.

Dare to investigate the bloody cases of AI mind-reaping that riddle the back alleys of your city, or keep your nose clean at the risk of innocent lives.
