Block 707 is an advanced floating metropolis situated in an isolated corner of the universe. Built in a cube-shaped form, it is an independent and heavily guarded city, with a population of human, mechanical and robotic citizens from all over the multiverse. It is filled with towering, neo-futuristic skyscrapers and the most advanced cyber-tech of the 21st century. The inhabitants are free to explore the many clubs, holographic casinos, and power-suited brawls that take place in the city s numerous districts. It is a city of secrets, of hidden alleyways and winding pathways that lead to the darker corners of the city, where the underworld of crime and gangs operate. It is a place where anything is possible, a place where dreams can be made, and realities are re-shaped.
