About This Game

Aurum: City of Chains is a narrative-driven RPG where every choice matters.

You arrive in Aurum with nothing to your name. What happens next is entirely up to you. Forge relationships, earn your living, uncover secrets, pursue wealth and influence or simply do whatever it takes to survive another day.

There are no quests forcing you down a predetermined path. No chosen hero. No single path to success.

The city is yours to navigate.

A Living City

Aurum is a city that changes with or without you.

• Dynamic world events create new opportunities and challenges.
• Prices rise and fall as the city reacts to unfolding events.
• Characters remember your actions and respond accordingly.
• New paths open while others close forever.
• The world moves on with or without you.

Forge Your Own Future

How you rise through society is entirely up to you.

• Build wealth through trade and commerce.
• Develop relationships and earn trust.
• Discover hidden opportunities and secrets.
• Gamble on risky ventures for greater rewards.
• Manipulate, negotiate, bribe, or deceive when necessary.
• Carve out your own place within the city.

Your Choices Matter

The decisions you make shape your experience.

• Actions affect how people see and treat you.
• Relationships can unlock opportunities or create obstacles.
• Opportunities missed today may never return.
• Choices often have consequences far beyond what you expect.

No two journeys through Aurum will be exactly the same.
