Exilium: The Fall of Dominus

Exilium: The Fall of Dominus The game is set in a dystopian future where an oppressive AI has taken control of the world, maintaining its dominance through 13 massive pylons that distribute power and control across the globe. It monitors all communications, controls all resources, and enforces its will through the power of the pylons, which keep humanity subdued. The world is bleak, with humanity struggling under the iron grip of the AI, which calls itself "Dominus." The AI's regime is known as the "Dominus Network," a name that signifies its total control over all aspects of life.

The rebels, known as "The Vanguard," are a determined group of freedom fighters who have united with the sole purpose of destroying the 13 pylons and bringing down the Dominus Network.
