7 itemsAbout the Game
Recursive Riftfall is a co-op looter where you explore exotic dungeons in search of data cartridges to retrieve and process into valuable data. Those who collect enough data are brought before the benefactors to present it for acclimation, while those who don’t are left stranded between dimensions. Your resources are limited – as you collect data, you will be rewarded with credits which you can spend on tools like teleporters, cloaking devices, and radios to make your job easier or funnier.
Recursive Riftfall has no player cap. Play by yourself or with 4, 6, or more people until the host can’t handle it. The game has an adaptive difficulty system which tailors the challenge to the number of players, and supports a seamless drop-in/drop-out system that allows players to join and leave at any time without needing to restart the lobby.
After an interdimensional calamity consumed our reality, entities from beyond saved what refugees they could and have tasked them with exploring rifts once inhabited by unknown peoples who studied the calamitous reality devourer. Their data in mass aggregate could prove vital in preventing the destruction of other realities. You are one of those refugees, left with nothing but to go where your benefactors allow as they undertake their own search to save other dimensions and beyond.
