Om spillet

A psychological RPG from some of the minds behind Disco Elysium.

Investigate, manipulate, and rewrite the truth in a world where your mind reshapes reality. 

You play a fallen journalist sent to bury the truth behind a catastrophic mining disaster — but as you dig through lies, factions, and conflicting stories, you uncover something far more dangerous beneath the surface. Every article you publish sways alliances, stokes chaos, or restores fragile hope.

Inspired by modern narrative classics like Disco Elysium, Hopetown blends choice-driven storytelling with a reactive world shaped by your beliefs, instincts, and the stories you choose to tell.

A Place of Ruin and Wonder

Hopetown stands in the shadow of decades-old devastation. Rebuilt through grit, industry, and ambition. Its hand-painted environments mix grounded realism with strange, dreamlike touches: flickering tension, impossible colours, and the eerie glow of quicksilver beneath the streets.

The Story Beneath

Humanity rebuilt itself after a solar flare fractured civilization — but in Hopetown, the past still glows beneath the earth.

Quicksilver, a rare mineral promising power and prosperity, has made this settlement rich… and dangerous. When disaster strikes, you’re sent to keep the peace and control the narrative.

But the further you descend into the tunnels, and into your own memories, the more the truth twists into something stranger than anyone expects.

Every Conversation Matters

No one here is simple — or safe.

Miners, militias, family loyalists, and strange drifters all have their own truths, contradictions, and motives. Your choices in dialogue shape relationships, open paths, close doors, and can turn arguments into weapons.

Words Are Your Weapons

Your journalism isn’t decoration — it’s how you play.

Investigate. Interview. Interpret.

Then publish articles that influence factions, redirect public anger, or spark unrest.

Every headline you craft decides what story the world believes.

The World As You See It

Your state of mind matters.

In Hopetown, beliefs bleed into the environment itself — your inner world transforms the outer one. The deeper you dig, the stranger the town becomes.

Everything Is Connected

Every truth you reveal, every lie you protect, every person you sway… it all ripples outward. Small decisions reshape the town’s fragile balance and send shockwaves through its people and politics.

What you uncover will change the town.

What you decide will change you.
