Alternate Reality: The City is an adventure game where you take on the role of a player and immerse yourself in a huge fantasy world. The story begins interestingly - you are kidnapped from the real world and find yourself in a city full of mysteries, magic and dangers. The game combines elements of RPG and simulation, where you have to go through the city, establish relationships with its inhabitants, fight monsters and perform various tasks. Every decision you make has an impact on character development and gameplay, giving the game a high degree of replayability.

The game brought something unique for its time - a time and weather system that affects not only the environment, but also the availability of some missions and interactions with NPCs (non-player characters). For example, some stores have opening hours and some events only take place at certain times or under certain weather conditions. The game literally encourages players to explore every corner of the city, get better equipment, improve their skills and gradually uncover the secrets of the city. With a refined world and a rich atmosphere, Alternate Reality: The City is a classic among RPG games, which retains its charm and player value even after years.
