Game Description

Riot: Civil Unrest is the highly anticipated real-time riot simulator that places the player right in the heart of some of the world's most fractious clashes. Campaigns include: Indignados (Spain), Arab Spring (Egypt), Keratea (Greece) and NoTAV (Italy). Seventeen single level scenarios include Rome, Oakland, Paris, London and Ukraine.

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. What triggers the crowd to behave with such anger and aggression? Often outnumbered, what does a police officer feel like during the conflict? Riot: Civil Unrest presents the player with the opportunity to experience both sides of the fight - a fight in which there really are no winners. Who is right and who is wrong? Experience RIOT - Civil Unrest and draw your own conclusions.

Alexander ★★★★★

The sheer chaos of managing crowds on my Switch is intense, and it's surprisingly smooth in handheld mode. I've already lost hours to the campaign, and the way the game forces you to think tactically about both sides keeps it fresh.

Emily G. ★★★★★

The real-time chaos is surprisingly gripping — I kept getting sucked into managing crowds and police lines for way longer than I planned. It’s not a pretty game, but the tactical depth of controlling both sides makes it worth picking up.

Joshua F. ★★★★★

Played a few riots before bed last night and honestly the chaos is addictive — the way the crowds surge on screen on the Switch feels surprisingly fluid. Even in handheld it holds up well, no stutter that ruined the tension. Wish there were a couple more maps but the core loop keeps me coming back.
