Available exclusively for Netflix members. It's the end of the world. The ultra-rich might be headed to Mars. Explore a flooded planet, discover islands and find allies — can you escape in time? Amid a great climate catastrophe, the flooded region of Hightower has become a kind of safe zone between the two dry regions: the nearly entirely ravaged land of the War Zone, and the fortified city of Alphaville, where the obscenely wealthy live behind giant walls. Rumors that the rich are escaping to Mars abound. Travel a submerged world by boat as a humble survivor — pick up friends, battle insurgents and steal food — all while fighting to find out if the rumors are true. Can you make it onto the rocket in this atmospheric, story-driven adventure? Features: • Explore a rich, story-driven 3D adventure filled with memorable characters, including friends, foes and creatures • Discover beautiful urban islands and experience new elements of the story • Engage in turn-based combat with a puzzle-solving twist • An exclusive Highwater Pirate Radio soundtrack and original musical performances by in-game characters color an immersive experience! - Game by Demagog Studio and Rogue Games.
