About the Game

The Rising is a narrative, exploration-based game with traces of survival.

Step into the paws of a dog. Your mission is to spy on suspicious humans living in the city.

Eavesdrop on their conversations, watch old tapes, register their hideouts and scan their documents.

Each dog's brain is neuronally hacked, ensuring that the information you collect is automatically transmitted to a Giant Worm that controls the city.

Understanding the city's dynamics is crucial for gathering intelligence, as events in the Ziggurat city are tied to specific time slots.

PRAISE BE THE DAY OF THE RISING.
