Curfew, sleep and where to stay
Every night at 02:00 the curfew starts and the day ends. The clock then stays at 02:00 until you go to bed, and sleeping takes you to 08:00.1,2,3,13,15
When the curfew starts
A warning comes at 01:00. The curfew starts at 02:00.1,2,3
From then on the game is in night mode, and you cannot travel to another district until the curfew is over.
What happens if you are still outside when the curfew starts is not confirmed.
The clock stops at 02:00
At 02:00 the day ends: rent is paid and the day summary appears. After that the clock stays at 02:00. You can still walk around, but time does not move on until you go to bed.2,13,15
Going to bed ends the curfew. You wake at 08:00, night mode is over and you can travel again.1,2,3,13,15
Loading a save made during the curfew keeps the clock stopped.2,13,15
Sleep
You can sleep in any bed. What happens depends on the time you go to bed:2,4
| You go to bed | What happens |
|---|---|
| 18:00 to 01:59 | The day ends first, as it would at 02:00 (rent, day summary). Then you wake at 08:00.1,2,3,4,16 |
| During the curfew (clock at 02:00) | You wake at 08:00. The day does not end a second time. |
| 08:00 to 17:59 | The bed refuses: you are not tired enough to sleep.2,4 |
Beds can only be placed in apartments.5,9,10
Night shelters
Every district has one night shelter, 18 in all. Shelters charge no rent.3,6,10,11,14,16
A shelter opens only during the curfew, from 02:00 until you sleep. Before 02:00 its door stays shut.1,6,12,14
The apartment wiki lists the shelter of every district.
Homes for rent
Besides your starting home (10 a day), 11 homes are for rent at 100 a day. 7 districts have no home for rent.3,6,10,11,14,16
You can enter a home you rent at any hour.1,6,12,14
Rent is charged once a day for every home you rent, when the day ends at 02:00. Going to sleep does not add an extra charge.1,2,3,16
You rent a home at the offer by its front door, once vendors are open in the story. No business permit is needed, and you can probably rent more than one. The rent screen for apartments is not confirmed in game. Estimate3,6,7,11
The starting home cannot be given up.3,6,10,11,14,16
Being noticed at night
During the curfew, security cameras and drones notice you, and so does picking things up. Once they have noticed you enough, you are caught: a message appears and security in that district goes up.8
Carrying an I.M.P.U.N.E in your inventory halves how fast you are noticed.
Fines
Getting caught can lead to a security phone call once night mode is over: a warning, or a fine of 20 to 60 Lims. Estimate8,12
- Seen by a drone: a warning, or a fine of 20 or 30.
- Seen by a camera: a fine of 50 to 60.
- A fine call only comes if you have at least that much money.
These calls come from the game's dialogue data. Which call you get, and when, is not confirmed.
