  Eternal darkness has gripped Twilight City. What's worse, gruesome fiends and horrific ghouls seem to have emerged from the shadows. Hundreds are already dead, and most of them are still walking the streets. What will become of you, fair citizen? Will you become a meal... or will you fight back the hordes? Perhaps you'll even join their ranks.

  Screams pierce the still air, accompanied occasionally by the sound of explosions in the distance. The lights have gone out, and morning has not been seen for days. You are now entering Twilight city limits, where any day can be your last. Population: Dwindling.
  As a Surviving Human, you will face throngs of the undead. Using skills such as building barricades, hiding out and of course mastering combat, you just might make it. A sleu of weapons await you, from the customary Baseball Bat, Shotgun and Chainsaw to the occasional Frying Pan or Dead Fish.

  Your goal will not only be living to see another day, but also helping others through healing and even revival using a strange serum created by Lazarix Pharmecudicals. Sure, your days may be numbered, but that doesn't mean you can't have a little fun.
  As a Zombie, you will feast upon both Humans and Vampires. Skills such as infecting your prey, hiding amongst corpses, and even using failed revivals to your advantage are in your ghoulish bag of tricks. Whenever a human dies by your hand, they will become a zombie. Hey… the more the merrier, right?

  Gang tactics are encouraged for zombie players, who can buy skills to recieve bonuses for attacking in groups and to (literally) sniff out others of your kind. The fungus that has reanimated you can even be strong enough to prevent others from reviving you.
  As a Vampire, you will feed upon Humans and attempt to destroy your Zombie competition. Your vile skills include shrugging off a percentage of all damage, unexpectegly attacking when others think you're deceased, and increasing your power along with your killing sprees. The blood of your enemies shall flow.

  Vampiric characters will find that feeding on the lifeblood of others can be quite refreshing… especially after a long day of sensing and searching out hidden players. Vampires are the born hunters of Twilight City's urban jungle.

News & Updates:
Registration Fix - Posted: 01/31/10

• After being plagued with undelivered registration letters for what seems like an eternity, our mail should now reach your inbox. (Some will even recieve two letters... for double effectiveness! :D ) If you registered in the past and didn't let us know you never recieved a letter - please let us know now!
New Map - Posted: 12/16/09

• The town of Denton has fallen into darkness. If you prefer a slower, coffee break method of play, this is for you. In the future as Denton grows, look for new locations and its own power plant!
New Tweak - Posted: 11/15/09

• Some buildings barricade differently. Have fun figuring it out!
New Skill - Posted: 10/30/09

• The Wrong Games Gang (AKA Mo and Silencio) is proud to present…

Free AP Weekends

What the heck is that?! - Well, every weekend players now recieve an extra action point per refresh. Play with your lighter! Jump out of a building! Hide in the corner! Say something stupid! What you do with it is up to you. Now the weekends are the optimal time to get your friends and enemies and frienemies to join the game, because they'll start with a leg up!
New Flavor - Posted: 07/19/09

• Remember that television you looted the split second you realized the police were a too busy to stop you? Well, you can stop using it as a foot stool and set it up. Also, if you want to send your dumb opinions, event news, or special easter egg images to everyone with a TV... well, all you need is a Digital Camera and a dream! (And control of the only TV station in Twilight, of course...)
New Something - Posted: 07/18/09

• Players in Twilight City who have a sharp eye (and nose) may notice something interesting during their travels.
New Skill - Posted: 04/19/09

• Vampires with a discerning palette will discover a new skill... uh... "Discerning Palette". With it, you'll find yourself spending less time trying to get into a building to attack someone who turns out to be your BFF. (Psst... Don't tell the Vampires, everyone else... but they might pass you over to get at an enemy elsewhere...)
New Stuff - Posted: 04/05/09

• Note: Barricade levels now automatically deteriorate slowly over time if the building is empty! Also, something interesting to be found in seedier locations. ;)

Hell Rising is a FREE browser-based, text-based, awesome-based survival/horror PvP game. Got it?

It's Human vs. Zombie vs. Vampire, and the battleground is Twilight City. Quarantine is in effect, and eternal night is the norm.

Join the Vampires and slake your thirst for Human suffering while you destroy the Zombies that threaten your blood supply.

Join the Zombies and stuff your face with Human flesh while throttling Vampires who are so cruel as to steal your dinner.

… Or join the Humans and fight back against the hordes of undead filling the streets.

Any way you slice it, this should be an interesting night. Survive or die.
