From the review, "The most exciting, engaging event of Unrest happens, then Pyrodactyl cheats us out of the falling action and denoument. It’s a tragedy, because everything leading up to that moment is literary perfection, culminating in a moment of anguish as the player realizes they connected with these characters for nothing. It is the video game equivalent of falling in love with a character in Game of Thrones, then discovering they die in A Storm of Swords. If you go into Unrest, do so knowing that it will let you down and break your heart."
iLLGaming reviews Unrest, a Kickstarter funded game based in Ancient India which explores racism, caste system, corruption and political power.
Owen Atkinson writes: "[Unrest] feels less like a game and more like an extremely vivid choose-your-own-adventure book. ... a poignant exploration of just how much people will sacrifice to save either themselves, their families or their homes, and the unintended consequences that can follow."
James sat down with Indian alt-RPG Unrest, noting it had a "novel approach to the standard formula"
