The game takes place in one of the large, ruined cities of the world.
- The city is ruined in "patches": some were burned down, some taken over by the weird, some destroyed in riots maybe? Nature reclaimed some, some is maybe weirdly missing.
- Coastal city
- One or two major rivers, mostly frozen solid
- Sliced up into different turfs held by different people
- There are underground tunnels in the city (who lives there?)
