CLEAN
CANDIDATE.

Bottleneck asked what you would do. Clean Candidate asks what you would become.

/ THE IDEA

You do not read about corruption. You commit it. One reasonable compromise at a time.

You run for mayor on a clean agenda: a clean city, clean politics. Nobody offers you a bribe. They offer a date, a coalition, a billboard, a better word. Each one makes sense. Together they cost you the thing you ran for.

A political noir in the browser. Rain, voiceover, an ordinary street where things happen quietly. You see your polls. You do not see what you are becoming.

Politics is the surface. Climate is the stake underneath.

THE CITY

Ironhaven.

An industrial city of 800,000 that does not exist, so that everything inside it can be real. Stitched from Kraków, Katowice, Ostrava, Łódź and Warsaw. Six districts, six political temperatures, a power station on the horizon that everyone's grandfather worked for.

THE CANDIDATE

A former reporter.

Mid-thirties. Went into politics to do the thing they used to write about. Narrates the whole game. Which version of them narrates the ending depends on you.

THE RECORD

Nothing is invented.

Every scene is a political mechanism taken from a documented case. When you decide, the game stops and shows you what really happened, with the source.

CURRENT STATUS.

BUILD · OCTOBER 2026 · WORK IN PROGRESS
