why you gotta make it hurt so good?
The City Never Sleeps, also known as the City for short, is a pan-fandom roleplaying game set in a previously abandoned city which appears to exist somewhere on the East Coast of the United States, although the exact location, year, and even plane of existence are debatable. Without warning or explanation, characters find themselves arriving in the city of Darrow, often by train, with no method of escape.
In the isolated and unsettling city, residents negotiate both their own day-to-day dramas and the City's oddities, including people inhabiting Darrow alongside them, the occasional supernatural occurrence, and unforeseen changes, from minor windfalls to doors that don't lead where they're supposed to. It's up to them to determine how to keep the abandoned City running, whether together or apart.
