WARNING: CONTAINS HEAVY SPOILERS! Please do NOT read if you haven't read City of Games yet, since this book contains information (read: spoiler material) regarding the characters in the story. You do NOT need to read this to understand the story in City of Games. This is just a for-fun book for those who want to explore my characters deeper. I will be updating this book as my story progresses, so most of the character's pages will be updated continually, especially major characters with undeveloped backgrounds; feel free to check this book periodically to see what information I added and for extra clues regarding the mysteries in the main book.

Note: Work of fiction. Does not correspond to real life, et cetera, et cetera.  ~:+:~ I was a barkeeper. 23 years were how long I worked there. The dim lights, the chipped wooden countertop. The alcohol rack, the glasses. My little home. What kept me there, you ask. The conversations. The people who left bits of their lives in mine as they entered and left through the heavy wooden door. Joy. Sadness. Doubt. Fear. Fury. Hate. Contentment. Love. I had always thought that I am the luckiest person to have experienced so many colors just by standing behind the line, only at the cost of providing my customers with service and good drinks. But now I longer work there. Still, the conversations linger in my head like ghosts, and it doesn't seem like they're leaving anytime soon. And they've been screaming in my head for days, now. Write, they say. Preserve us, they say. Well. I shall. They made me who I am, anyway. But I shall try to keep my opinions removed from them, as subjectivity is the bane of accurate reiteration. In effort of doing so, I will reduce narration to nil unless needed. I hope memory serves me well and allows me to get as close as possible to the words and sentences I heard. Without further ado, here it is. ~:+:~ Cover by @alariclocke <3

This riddle-filled story revolves around bizarre individuals trapped inside a city where death is their daily bread. Struggling to survive in it, they learn that the people closest to them might not be who they seemed, and that the city's deep, dark secrets are held by a select few who operate the city behind the scenes. Unfortunately for them, "The Big Ten", for a lack of any official name, would never give the secrets of the city so easily, and, well, these people happen to REALLY love games. Especially ones involving people's lives. Will they survive the deadly games of the city? Will they manage to get out? Will they fail the challenges and die? Or even worse, will they fall prey to the madness running rampant in the city? Find out what happens in the City of Games, and see if you can survive being a resident yourself! ------------------- WARNING: Lots of blood, gore, profanity, and tons of weirdness. Also, this book is more suited to those who can stand reading long chapters at a time :p Note: If you can solve all the puzzles/riddles I put in a chapter, you'll get a special dedication in that chapter! If you enjoyed this, be sure to check out 'Citizen Records' and 'Game Records' as well! They're both extensions to this story, and you can find them on my page :3 That said, have fun reading! :D
