About This Game

STICKVILLE

Rise from the gutter — one fight, one hustle, one bad decision at a time.

You wake up broke in the worst part of a city that already forgot you. No money,

no reputation, no way out but up. STICKVILLE is a gritty 2.5D life-sim brawler

where every crumpled bill, black eye, and burned bridge is yours to earn. Work

honest jobs or run crooked hustles. Learn to fight — fists, blades, and worse.

Gamble what little you have on rigged tables and hope you can read the tell. Claw

your way from the slums to the neon heights of downtown, and decide what kind of

person you become on the way.

A CITY WITH A BOTTOM AND A TOP

Start in the rain-slick slums and climb through the casino strip, the midtown

avenues, and the glass towers of downtown. Every district looks, sounds, and

treats you differently — and the city visibly rewards the climb. Where you sleep,

what you wear, and who you've crossed all follow you between them.

FIGHT LIKE YOU MEAN IT

Real-time melee built on stamina, range, and reading your opponent. Trade fists,

pick up weapons off the street — bats, blades, a legendary katana — and learn

martial-arts techniques from a back-alley dojo. Push too hard and you gas out; get

desperate and adrenaline kicks in. Lose and you don't die — you wake up at home,

lighter in the wallet and heavier in grudges.

EVERY TABLE IS A CON

Sit down at hands-on gambling games where winning means spotting the rig, not just

picking a number. Watch the sleeve, track the cup, hold your nerve. From back-room

dice to a shell game run by the Countess to the long table at the very top — the

house always has a tell, if you can see it.

BUILD A LIFE OUT OF A DUMPSTER

Turn a mattress on the floor into a real home. Buy furniture, mine SLUMcoin on a

scavenged battlestation, upgrade your bed for a better night's sleep, stock a

wardrobe, and bank your winnings. Progress you can walk around in.

CHOICES THAT STICK

A karma system that tracks only what actually matters — mercy, integrity, cruelty

CHOICES THAT STICK

A karma system that tracks only what actually matters — mercy, integrity, cruelty

— never empty politeness. Spare a beaten enemy or finish them. Hunt hidden

questlines the city never hands you. Keep a journal of every thread you're pulling.

The slums remember.

Rated Mature 17+. Drugs, alcohol, gambling, strong language, and weapon violence —

a city that doesn't clean up for company.

A 100% original world. Every brand, character, and street sign was invented for

Stickville.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

This game uses generative AI as part of its development. Written content — including in-game dialogue, lore, quest text, and item descriptions — was created with the assistance of generative AI and then reviewed and edited by the developer before release. All AI-assisted content is pre-generated during development; no content is generated live or at runtime while you play, and the game does not connect to any external AI service.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Stickville is a gritty crime game set in a stylized stick-figure world, intended for mature players. It contains:

- Violence and blood: Frequent stylized melee and weapon combat (fists, bats, katana, firearms). Defeated enemies bleed, with blood spray on heavy hits and pooling under downed bodies. Some story moments depict characters being killed or executed.
- Illegal drugs: Fictional street drugs ("Stim," "Mellow") can be bought from a dealer and used for in-game effects. The game depicts drug dealing and a run-down drug-den environment. No real substances, chemistry, or usage instructions are shown.
- Alcohol and tobacco: Drinking and smoking are depicted in bars and on the street.
- Simulated gambling: A casino offers slots, roulette, blackjack, and dice. All wagers use in-game currency only — there is no real-money gambling, purchases, or cash-out.
- Crime and strong language: The story involves bribery, theft, shakedowns, and other criminal acts, with frequent strong profanity.

The game contains no sexual content or nudity, no depictions of sexual violence, and no self-harm or suicide. An optional romance storyline exists but nothing sexual is shown.
