in short.

Every fact about Nivalis Nights on one page — checked, sourced, and linked.

What is Nivalis Nights?

Nivalis Nights is a cyberpunk slice-of-life simulation from ION LANDS, the studio behind Cloudpunk, published by 505 Games. It takes place in Nivalis — the vertical city that stretches from the ocean to the clouds — and was first announced under the name Nivalis before taking its final title. You grow businesses from noodle stands to nightclubs, source ingredients from markets, gardens, or the sea, decorate your homes, and build friendships and maybe love along the way.
