The Rising

About the Game

Step into the paws of a dog. Your mission is to spy on every human living in the Ziggurat City. Eavesdrop on conversations, watch old tapes, search their hideouts and scan their documents.
REPORT to the Great Worm, the magnanimous leader who rose from the earth many years ago.

THE GREAT WORM’S SACRED WORK

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

You have been chosen to serve as one of the Great Worm’s little spies. A blessed and noble endeavor.

Every dog’s brain has been neurally hacked, ensuring that the information you collect is transmitted directly to him. The Great Worm sees everything you see. He implants thoughts in your mind. Disobey, and you will face consequences.

EXPLORE THE CITY

Understanding the city’s rhythms is essential to gathering intelligence: events in the Ziggurat City unfold in specific time slots.
Humans roam the quiet streets. Most are compliant. Harmless. But in the depths of the dusty city, mysterious figures lurk in the darkness. Watching. Plotting to undermine the Great Leader.
