About Backbone
Backbone is a post-noir narrative adventure that takes you deep into a dystopian, animal-inhabited Vancouver, BC.

As you dig into the society’s corrupt class system, a deeply personal story of change and transformation will begin to unfold.
Lastly, in case you missed it, Eggnut revealed a new teaser in December, introducing a scene from a new Backbone game, also published by Raw Fury. More news to come.
