About This Game

The Earth is gone. Shattered by greed and corruption, only Star Ruins remains a broken fragment of civilization spiraling toward oblivion.

Two factions battle for control:
The Syndi rebels, assassins, and visionaries fighting to rebuild.
Canopy Corp tyrants, warlords, and cybernetic horrors clinging to their dying rule.

You are Nyx Draven, an elite assassin infused with Arquanum, a forbidden fusion of quantum science and mysticism. As war rages, your choices will define the fate of Star Ruins.
Will you turn enemies into allies and reshape the world or hunt the oppressors to extinction, carving a future in blood and rebellion?

A.L.A.R.M. blends high-speed action RPG combat, cinematic Dansassination battles, and a surreal world of cyberpunk dystopia, occult horror, and rebellion.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

A.L.A.R.M. contains stylized but impactful violence, dark humor, and occasional crude language used for comedic or expressive purposes.

Violence & Gore – Combat is fast-paced, exaggerated, and creative, with blood effects and the occasional over-the-top finishing move. Some attacks may include low blows or humorous takedowns.

Drugs & Alcohol – Characters may consume alcohol, marijuana, psychedelic mushrooms, and other plant-based substances in ways that align with the game’s satire and storytelling.

Tone & Style – While the game features high-quality PBR textures for realism, character designs are slightly stylized and expressive, balancing the intensity of combat with humor and satire.

No sexual content or nudity.

If you enjoy cyber-horror, dark comedy, and high-energy action, A.L.A.R.M. delivers a unique and immersive experience-with a satirical twist.
