RI0T: Mobile

Fight corruption or control the horde as RIOT places you in some of the world's most fractious disputes.

RIOT's creator, Leonard Menchiari, experienced rioting first-hand at the NoTAV protests in Italy as well as several other around Europe between 2012 and 2016. 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 it feel like to be a police or military officer in a riot? RIOT presents the player with the opportunity to experience both sides of the fight – a fight in which there really is no winner. Who is right and who is wrong? Experience RIOT and draw your own conclusions.

It is up to you to choose how to tackle each situation, employing different strategies and tactics in order to achieve the perfect outcome. Discover if you can dispel an angry crowd or overcome a well-equipped militia as civil crisis deepens and corruption tears the very fabric of society.
