IGNIS CITY
Every building is someone who made it through. Find yours.
IGNIS CITY is a free browser game — a quiet 3D city built from real people's stories of surviving hard times. Every building is a real person who lived through something hard and left their story: what happened, how they faced it, and what they'd tell you now. Find the one whose struggle mirrors yours, see how they got through, and light a candle to say "you're not alone." If their story reaches you, follow them and support their next chapter. Made by one person, in English and Japanese.
Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm the solo maker.
When I was three, someone set fire to our home. I later became a firefighter and, after years of relentless harassment, an incident during my duty was reported in the news, and I left that path. In the business I turned to next, someone I trusted like a best friend turned out to be a con artist — I lost a lot of money, and the trust of a lot of people.
But at the very bottom, I found I wasn't alone: the few who never left, and my wife, held me up. That gratitude is why I built IGNIS CITY — a city where every building is a real person who survived something hard and left their story, so the next person going through it can see how they got through, and know they're not alone either.
I'd genuinely love your honest feedback. 🕯️
how does the follow and support actually work in practice, is it like a donation thing or more of a community space?
How do you decide which stories get turned into buildings, and is there any kind of moderation process for what people submit?
The candle lighting when you find someone whose story hits close is a really touching touch, almost meditative exploring the city. Surprised how much weight a simple 3D block can carry when there's a real voice behind it.
how do you decide which stories become buildings in the city, and is there any moderation since these are real people sharing hard experiences?
The idea of walking through a city where each building holds someone's real story of getting through tough times is really moving. Lighting a candle for someone who survived what you're going through feels like something genuinely meaningful, not just a game mechanic.
The idea of walking through a quiet city where each building represents someone's real struggle hits differently. Lighting a candle for a stranger felt surprisingly moving.
