A cyberpunk game that takes place entirely in a replica of the Kowloon walled city would be cool as fuck. Just as much map "area" as fallout 4 but packed into a 1 mile cube.

I've thought a lot about this. It would have to be a game with no combat. Too cramped. It'd be a nice puzzle game like Myst, tho.

Edit: Stray 2: Kowloon

Wait I had a similar idea once! Youre right that would be cool af, but very difficult to get right. In open world games you usually get away with "isolated" side quests, in a dense cube this is difficult – which might be a good thing, it forces interconnectivity.
