DURMIENTES del Río Negro

DURMIENTES del Río Negro is an action and exploration game set in places that actually exist: the Viedma waterfront, the old railway bridge over the Río Negro, the sea-lion caves of Punta Bermeja in Argentine Patagonia. Each chapter is one night at a turning point in the region's history, and each night the river wakes those it took.

A guardian for every place

In each town, the spirit of a figure from its history returns, with its own way of fighting. In the Viedma and Patagones region, the first to return is its founder.

Moments in history, where they happened

• 1779 · The founding
  
• 1827 · Defending the coast against the imperial fleet
  
• 1881 · The wreck of the Cóndor
  
• 1887 · The Río Negro Lighthouse
  
• 1899 · The great flood
  
• 1931 · The Bridge Vigil, with the railway bridge workers
  
• Today · The Sea Cave Vigil, on a night of spring tide

Short runs, choices that matter

Each vigil lasts 15 to 20 minutes, and what you build in one era changes what you find in the next.

Bosses with a story

The Foreman on the bridge, the fleet at the river mouth, whatever rises from the sea.

Made in Patagonia

Developed in Viedma by Arthemis Games, with locations rebuilt from plans, period photographs and surveys of the real sites.

First stage: Viedma and its coast. The next ones travel across the rest of the province, each with its own guardian.
