Limassol 2000s

San Andriko

Open-play game set in Limassol in the 2000s

A non-profit project

Before the towers, before the marina, before the euro.

Non-profit passion project by to indulge our nostalgia for how the town was before its recent transformations.

The story

Andriko comes home

Andreas “Andriko” Christodoulou comes home from three years of “studying” in Manchester, with no degree, one good shirt and a debt he'd rather not talk about.

His uncle's taxi rank owes money to Michos: the man behind half the kiosks in town, the doors of every club in the Tourist Area, and a fishing boat at the old port that never seems to catch any fish.

To clear the debt, Andriko starts running errands for Michos, from the old town lanes to the neon of the Tourist Area. It doesn't take long to see who really runs this city.
