Debasing Grounds [v0.4.6] [Rax Lorax]
The world has been transformed into a wasteland, with only a few scattered settlements remaining as a testament to the resilience of humanity. You find yourself awakening in a town fortified by a practical wall of mud and metal bars.
As a fully customizable character, you are faced with the challenge of navigating this treacherous landscape. Interact with the residents, form alliances, and make difficult choices that will shape your destiny and the future of the town itself. In this unforgiving post-apocalyptic world, you must find a way to rise above the darkness and carve out a place for yourself amidst the chaos.
The path you choose is yours alone in Debasing Grounds. Will you become a beacon of hope, another victim lost to the world, or will you just seek more and more power to try to dominate others?
Debasing Grounds contains graphic and dark material that can be unsettling or triggering to some people. The game contains descriptions of non-consensual sex, bondage, sexual humiliation and physical abuse. You must be 18 or older to play this game.
