RPG Gamers summaryUnrest is an adventure role-playing game that takes place in a fantasy interpretation of ancient India. The game revolves around the struggles of ordinary people as they try to survive in the famine-stricken city-state of Bhimra, where poverty, disease, treason, political and social upheaval run rampant. In Unrest, you play as five unique characters, each facing their own burdens and dilemmas, and each having their own personal story. Your choices in the game have far-reaching consequences, shaping the narrative and affecting the fate of other characters. There are no right or wrong answers, and if a character dies or fails their objectives, it becomes part of the narrative. The game’s dialogues are organic, branching exchanges, offering an unparalleled level of control and involvement to the player, and the classical Indian soundtrack perfectly echoes the game’s emotional core. Combat in Unrest is rare and always avoidable, making the player decide how much they’re willing to risk when faced with the possibility of death. The game’s hand-drawn sprites and environments call to mind a living canvas, creating a stunning visual experience. Unrest also offers mod support, allowing players to create and share their own worlds and adventures.
