Animation & Game
Aeons ago Hyperion, the mightiest amongst the Titans was shattered in an act of wrath. His shattered remains still slumbered around the world.
As Aton, the soul of Hyperion, you awake to the presence of your siblings in a city defined in social conflicts and religious opression.
As an ancient shard of Hyperion, the Titan of Light, it is on you to manipulate
your followers, build your cult and commune with your siblings. Expand your cults influence, fight for control with enemy gods and weave your web over a procedurally generated city in this singleplayer grand-strategy game set in religiously oppressed Victorian London.
You need to reunite with your siblings. Achieving this through cooperation or
subjugation is up to you. Restore Hyperions might, by infesting the high church from the
inside.
A unique take on the 4X strategy genre as a story game
- Expand your influence over the city
- Abuse the connections of its citizens
- Indoctrinate them into your cult so he grows stronger
- Grow from a shadow organization to a contestant of the High Church
