It's been quite a journey but we're now counting down the release of RIOT - Civil Unrest in terms of hours and minutes rather than months and weeks. On December 6th, at 15:00 GMT I'll be clicking on this button.
By now you'll have read the community posts and watched the videos from people lucky enough to have received a beta key. You'll have seen the good, the bad and the ugly.
We're really looking forward to seeing everyone experiencing RIOT - Civil Unrest, it's going to be a blast. At the same time I'd like to remind you that the game is in Early Access and certain features, such as the level editor, will appear during the Early Access period, not on release.
Thank you for the incredible support you've shown the game. We know it's been difficult (oh boy, do we know!) and we'd like to apologise for all the frustration.
Prepare to RIOT ON!

As the world’s economical crisis deepens and inequality tears the very fabric of society the discontentment of the masses manifests itself in violent public disturbances and civil disorder.
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.
