Leader created a system of amplions through which he sends subliminal commands, and with them he leads the whole society to perfection. But behind what may have been a noble pursuit of a perfect community in its seed lies slavery, and Felix realizes that the pursuit of the Absolute Tone, to which the Leader has dedicated his life, may end in disaster. So he decides to thwart all Leader's plans and make sure that the society survives in its imperfection.[2]
Gameplay

Development
[edit]Phonopolis was originally developed by Hammeware.[3] The project caught interest of Jakub Dvorský from Amanita Design and in 2016 development moved under Amanita Design.[4] The game was officially announced on 18 May 2022.[5][6] The game differs from previous titles by Amanita Design with its graphics. While previous games used 2D graphics Phonopolis uses 3D graphics made from paper. The game refers to interwar avant-garde artistic trends, such as constructivism, futurism or suprematism.[4][7] As of March 2024, Amanita Design expected the game to take approximately two more years to complete.[8]
