Umurangi Generation is an award-winning first-person photography game set in the retro future. Tauranga, Aotearoa finds itself off the back of an impending crisis. Major cities are walled off, fighter jets are beaming overhead, and everyday life is serenaded with the sound of incessant gunfire…
Despite all that, life goes on. People drag themselves to work, party hard to escape the realities of their lives, and complain about the government all day.
As a courier for the Tauranga Express with a passion for photography, you’re afforded the freedom to travel around Tauranga. Through the lens of your camera, document the daily lives of Tauranga’s residents, as well as the impending doom they find themselves face to face with.
