About Lightrise™
Lightrise is a skill-based, player vs. player combat game which at the core is focused on fun, fluent and fast-paced combat. Lightrise gives players a combat experience not quite like anything else available out there.
Lightrise has much more depth than a traditional one-shot, one-kill FPS, but at the same time does not have any of the familiar restraints such as classes, roles and load outs that are typically found in games of the genre today. Right from the start, each player has access to an identical arsenal of spells and skills - the playing field is as even as it could be - no strongest classes, no flavor of the month builds, no over-powered load out configurations.
Every player can shoot a bow, cast a fireball or swing an axe seamlessly without any artificial restrictions. Every win and loss will be determined solely by how well you play in that moment.

[quote][b]Note: Dead PvP game[/b] This game contains no meaningful single player content. The developers closed the back end servers. This game cannot be played as intended.[/quote] This was a weird and badly failed attempt to make a sword & sorcery hack and slash PvP arena thing... that didn't attract any players for reasons we'll get into. So, "Lightrise™" is a dead PvP game. Why did it fail? It's video game autopsy time! [i]Almost every PvP exclusive game on Steam fails.[/i] Only a tiny proportion of them "go viral". This game failed for many of the same reasons those others fail. The chief of which is the developer thinking that their game will "go viral" without actually creating any reason for it do so. Competition amongst PvP centric games is extreme, and there's only a finite player base to appeal to. This game failed to reach any kind of critical mass and died as a result. Let's go into some of the reasons this particular game failed to appeal to gamers, despite the zero up front cost. First and foremost, there's no meaningful single player content. The developer gambled that other players would be an acceptable substitute for adding storytelling, level desi…
Игра Lightrise™ — это увлекательная стратегия с элементами головоломки, где игрок управляет светом для построения и защиты своей территории. Графика яркая, а механики оригинальны: нужно грамотно использовать источники света, чтобы активировать объекты и противостоять врагам. Плюсы — креативный геймплей и глубокая тактика, минусы — сложность в освоении и иногда нестабильная физика. Подойдёт тем, кто любит интеллектуальные задачи и стратегическое мышление. Рекомендую!
