D1AL-ogue

D1AL-ogue is a cyberpunk repair puzzle game set in Chroma City, where the sun never rises and artificial “Neon-Shine” lights the streets. As manager of a repair clinic in the shopping district, you use the old-school [D1AL] diagnostic console to fix androids called Electronic Vital Entities (E.V.E) and help them return to their daily lives. With the longest night of the year, “Polar Night Day,” approaching, festive lights and shadows fill the city.

Repairing androids

Repairs take place on a circular grid representing an android’s internal core. Within a limited battery capacity, you move and rotate modules, merging three of the same kind into a higher-tier unit. You replace units precisely while avoiding the spread of electronic narcotics and overloaded units that are close to exploding.

Stories from the clinic

Androids with distinct personalities and backstories visit the workshop. Their daily stories, set in a cyberpunk world where the abnormal is ordinary, change depending on your skills. Rather than serving tea or cocktails, you offer each visitor a successful repair.

Art and narrative

The game combines pixel art inspired by 98-era PC visuals with Neon Noir aesthetics. Its narrative focuses on everyday stories that are both trivial and deep.
