Rise Against Injustice or Keep the Peace in RIOT: Civil Unrest, Launching February on PC and Consoles

Thursday 29 January, 2019, Manchester, UK. – Merge Games Ltd., is set to release RIOT: Civil Unrest, a real-time riot simulation experience.

RIOT: Civil Unrest is a unique, thought-provoking experience that places you at the heart of some of the world's most recent confrontations. Spread across four campaigns and over 30 individual scenarios, from Oakland in California to Tahrir Square in Egypt and Caracas in Venezuela, RIOT: Civil Unrest lets players control either the protestors or law enforcement in an effort to portray a balanced view of each event.

Riot - Civil Unrest is OK as a game but shines at relating a strong personal experience. It relishes in the uncontrolled anarchy of its scenarios despite the shallowness of its gameplay. While it's unlikely to capture your attention for long stretches, Riot is worth a look. Especially for those looking for something different to try. As the world's economic crisis deepens and inequality tears the very fabric of society the discontentment of the masses manifests itself in violent public disturbances and civil disorder. Protests and sporadic unrest continued daily for weeks. 2019 – Memphis riot, June 13, following the fatal shooting of Brandon Webber by U.S. Marshals, Memphis, TN. 2020 – New York City FTP protests, January 31, Anti-Transit Police and MTA protest resulting in hundreds of arrests over the three separate days of demonstration. Riot: Civil Unrest, like most things in life, is decidedly political, although it does its level best to be equitable about it. As the name suggests, this is literally a civil riot simulator and, as such, probably has an incredibly limited audience. RIOT: Civil Unrest now boasts a powerful, Steam Workshop Editor that allows users to create and share their own scenarios too. RIOT – Civil Unrest's creator, Leonard Menchiari, experienced rioting first-hand at the NoTAV protests in Italy. He created the game to tell the stories and express the feelings experienced during these clashes.

Featuring some of the best pixel art graphics ever seen, RIOT: Civil Unrest was born out of the real-life experiences of its artist and creator, Leonard Menchiari. During the summer of 2011 Leonard attended the NO-TAV protests in northern Italy. There he witnessed first-hand the actions of both the protestors and law enforcement officers which lead him to create RIOT: Civil Unrest. He created RIOT to tell these stories and express the emotions felt during these clashes. What triggers the anger and aggression? Often outnumbered, what does a police officer endure during the conflict?

A complex strategy game, RIOT: Civil Unrest sets players objectives for each scenario. It's then up to the individual to choose how to tackle each situation, employing different strategies and tactics in order to achieve the perfect outcome. See if you can you dispel an angry crowd or overcome a well-equipped militia with RIOT: Civil Unrest. Player performance is rated, aggression can lead to a quick, successful outcome but a softer approach may have the same resolution without damaging public opinion.

RIOT: Civil Unrest boasts impressive crowd behaviour. Each individual character has its own artificial intelligence that gives the overall crowd mass very realistic and fluid movement. The PC version also boasts a powerful editor that allows users to create and share their own scenarios. The editor comes complete with additional scenarios made by the Bologna-based development team, including: G20 – Hamburg, Gilets Jaunes – Paris, Shohada Square – Iran and Buenos Aires, Argentina.
