About the game

Awakened Rift is a mobile strategy game played on the map of the city where you live. Rifts open in real streets and parks, and monsters pour out of them.

We lived in peace. In 2044 everything changed. Scientists called it the Cataclysm — people simply called them Rifts. Ordinary weapons were useless against the monsters, but with the Rifts the Arcana awakened. Those who received it became Defenders.

The player is the Chief of an HQ of the League of Defenders. They lead the Phantom Legion, summon Generals — shadow champions burning with the colours of their worlds — master the Arcana and close the Rifts across their city.
