What is Rise?
Classic Adventure…
Rise borrows and expands on classic games such as Talisman and Arkham Horror to create a faster-paced social adventure game.
…With a modern twist!
Each game, one player is designated as the Oracle and given the responsibility of determining the outcome of the Portents of the demon lord’s impending awakening. At the same time, one Hero may secretly be the Fallen, subtly working against the party until they can reveal themselves to do the most damage.
Yes, they can be the same person.
An accessible and exciting game night adventure…
Simple mechanics combined with almost 2000 different Demon Lord and Party combinations means a different challenge in every game. What do you do when the party needs to rush through the dungeon to stop the Lich Lord from completing his spell, when the party has a slowpoke in tow? How do you survive to reach the Sentient Dungeon Core when the party has no healer? Every game is a completely new challenge.
…while filled with gems for those who are invested in the genre.
Every Demon Lord, Hero, Item, and Event in Rise is a Super Serious piece of an epic adventure, and definitely not making fun of a genre of media so dense with cliches and tropes that it needs a dozen subgenres.
