About the Game

The NAKI Files is a first-person multiplayer-coop survival horror. In it, you must spread hidden knowledge to humanity, which is dominated by the Anunnaki*, the maestros of the world government matrix. It's 2027, and the 2030 agenda came sooner than we expected.

*The name "Anunnaki" has been translated in various ways. One of them means "one who came from heaven to earth," they are descendants of Anu, from the Highlands. They are beings with elongated skulls, who in Sumerian texts claim to have created the humanity they themselves manipulate.

Story with some rogue-lite elements

The game is divided into phases. Each phase consists of 9 rounds, each more difficult than the last, but the procedure is the same: Awaken enough people to progress, while the Anunnaki try to stop you personally. If everyone dies, it's game over, and you'll have to restart the phase from round 1.

For each person you awaken, you receive some Credit. Use these credits to unlock Amulets that change the way you play and help you progress even further.

Hundreds of possibilities

Interact with the scenario in creative ways. Position cameras, land mines, and shoot shotguns at the Anunnaki. Out of ammo? Use kitchen plates, improvise something.

Find secrets scattered throughout the map. Correlate information to understand more than what is simply written in the books, thus progressing further.

Dress however you want by going to the Wardrobe during a match. All outfits are available and can be combined to your liking.

Author's note

"Dense in knowledge, symbologies, positive references, and a pinch of creative freedom, The NAKI Files is ultimately a love letter to all those who feel different in this world. They feel something is wrong but don't know where to look."
