Phonopolis

Phonopolis is a point and click adventure puzzle video game, developed by Czech company Amanita Design and released in May 2026.

Plot

Felix, an inconspicuous young garbage collector, lives in Phonopolis, a city ruled by the dictatorial Leader. Though it isn’t a direct depiction of any country, its visual design and political themes are inspired by the Soviet Union avant-garde constructivism in the late 1920s.

Felix unknowingly faces a great threat with his fellow citizens. Leader created a system of amplions through which he sends subliminal commands, and with them he leads the whole society to perfection. But behind what may have been a noble pursuit of a perfect community in its seed lies slavery, and after finding a pair of headphones, which are able to suppress the amplions’ noise, Felix realizes that the pursuit of the Absolute Tone, to which the Leader has dedicated his life, may end in disaster. So he decides to thwart all Leader’s plans and make sure that the society survives in its imperfection.
