New Arc Line is an RPG that opens with the New World on the horizon and the shining city of New Arc on its shore, your last hope of finding a cure for the fatal disease threatening your family. You arrive in steerage aboard a crowded steamship packed with thousands of other immigrants, a stranger in a strange land full of wonder, only to discover that the city's beauty is skin-deep and rot festers beneath its golden facade.
Factory smoke chokes the sky while segregation, inequality, and corruption run rampant, and you must claw your way up from the very bottom, making hard choices and getting your hands dirty to succeed at any cost. You can craft technopunk gear or study the arcane arts, and fight, steal, or talk your way toward the top as the hero or villain you choose to become.
You do not face these trials alone. You create your own character as a Human or Elf and pick your gender, background, and appearance, though the world's inhabitants carry their own prejudices and treat you differently based on your choices. Along the way you gather a party, make allies and enemies, fall in love, and become entangled in a sweeping conspiracy. On PC it offers a story-rich role-playing experience shaped heavily by your decisions.
