CAGE 籠

About

"Cage" is a 3D adventure puzzle game based on the setting and stories of Hong Kong’s Kowloon Walled City. The player controls Min, a child sent to live with his grandfather for the summer holidays. Min will explore and solve puzzles around the Walled City to acquaint himself with his surroundings.

The story is set in the Walled City on the verge of demolition in the late 80s; “Cage” will first and foremost be about family. The game showcases the local atmosphere and beliefs with beings such as Tudi Gong (the Earth God) as well as give insights into authentic locations and scenes of the Walled City such as the Communal Water Tap and the Temple. Players will also be able to look into famous parts of the Kowloon Walled City such as the Dentists, Fishball Factories and Protests prevalent during that time. “Cage” hopes to teach more players about the Walled City and allow people to learn while playing.

The game is in 3D to best restore the intricacies of the architectural structure of the Kowloon Walled City to its highest potential; in-game models have been modelled after original maps of the Walled City. There is much to explore in the Kowloon Walled City; players will be able to see more of the map once they complete each task in the Main Quest, so make sure to search through every nook and cranny!

When searching for a key to unlock the gate, a yellow/gold coin with the Unity logo is revealed instead. The game stops working immediately and there is no way to exit that screen.

Please fully exit the game and re-enter the game by double-clicking the .exe. We currently found that this issue happens when player enter the game the second time through clicking New Game on the home page after exiting from the game.
