Game Description

A Thug's Ascension is a low-poly narrative-driven action-adventurer set in a dying, divided metropolis; a dark, slow-paced, dialogue-driven crime drama about loss, rage, community, and morality. Similar to titles like Deadly Premonition or Goodbye Volcano High, this is a movie-game, an art game, a cinematic experience meant to be played almost like reading a novel, making it a great title for backseat gaming, streaming, and content creation. A Thug's Ascension marries emotional, character-driven storytelling with intense shooting and driving gameplay, everything from a high-stakes prison escape to a brutal city-wide car chase.



Step into the dying metropolis of Maratha as the feared mercenary ‘Chief', and join a gang of outlaws in the war against billionaire industrialist Dr Sarkar and his violent attempts to rebuild the nation's greatest city in his own image. The game chronicles the clash of these two men brought up on the opposite sides of a crippling economic divide, through the 47,000-word-long screenplay penned by writer-director Adi Chandra.



A Thug's Ascension, Moonwalk's passion project of five years, is out now on Steam and is available for Windows and macOS. If you are interested in the game, we'll be happy to provide you with a download key so you can enjoy this story with your audience! Please feel free to contact us for anything you might need.
