Minerva Rising is a Frostpunk-meets-Silo underground city builder in which rebel citizens can hack your camera
Minerva Rising is a post-apocalyptic city-building game set in an underground settlement divided into levels, each with its own resources, industries and communities. Players control the city as an artificial intelligence, and neglecting residents’ needs could prompt them to rebel and disable the cameras, making it harder to monitor their activity.
The solo-developed game is described as combining ideas from Frostpunk and Silo. Players can use propaganda screens to show Steamboat Willy or encourage residents to value underground features such as waterfalls and glowing fungi; each playthrough may bring different challenges, including blight, starvation or coal shortages. There is no release date yet.
In short
- Minerva Rising is an underground city builder.
- Neglected citizens may rebel and cut camera feeds.
- Each run brings different resource challenges.
