THE STORY

Find the Wunderground. Discover the truth. Save the city.

Welcome to Absurd City, a major city in Meridia, a world that’s already suffered its climate collapse.

Instead of dealing with disaster when they had the chance, the City’s leaders long ago sealed the City under a gigantic dome. What could possibly go wrong?

Now, decades later, the City is on the brink again… but the powers-that-be are insisting that EVERYTHING IS FINE.

Find the Wunderground. Discover the truth. Save the city.

Welcome to Absurd City!

Turns out, you CAN buy happiness!

The blinged-out shopping district BLOOM STREET is going gaga, advertising endless outrageous new products… but who’s buying?

Beyond the bright lights of Bloom Street, the City’s other Districts are going dark… and a CURFEW is keeping Citizens off the streets.

The Wunderground

Meanwhile, rebellious resistance movement THE WUNDERGROUND is sticking up posters everywhere REX can’t reach. They say REX HAS CHANGED… and they need YOUR help.

And in the heart of the City, the ancient, mysterious generator known as THE GENNY is right on the edge of TOTAL BURNOUT…

So, how do I play?

YOU are an interdimensional DAYTRIPPER, on a once-in-a-lifetime holiday from reality.
Step through the portal, explore a wild alternate world, and FIND THE TRUTH!

The Wunderground

These punks and rebels are a grassroots movement that challenges the status quo of Absurd City. They say REX HAS CHANGED. They say the Cityʼs in a crisis. And they say they need YOUR help.

Their message: FIND THE WUNDERGROUND. FIND THE TRUTH. SAVE THE CITY.

The Genny

The heart of Absurd City.

The last stop on Daytrippersʼ tour of the City. This mysterious, ancient natural generator was discovered many years ago. And sheʼs the only reason the City survived when the world outside collapsed.

REX was originally programmed to distribute Genny energy sustainably. But look closely: THE GENNY IS IN TROUBLE.

The Elite

Excess is Success.

Who are we? If you donʼt know, then you donʼt need to know.

Save The City

Whether you’re strolling the streets, hunting for secrets, or actively joining a covert resistance group known as the Wunderground, there's no wrong way to experience Absurd City.

But look closer, and you'll see that all is not as it seems... What's happening to the Genny? Who are the Elite? And is REX really a good boy?

Remember, REX says...
