In this local couch brawler, you and up to three friends take on the role of a ruler in order to control the planets. In order to achieve this goal, however, your fellow combatants must leave the planet – one way or another. Each of the planets will react differently during your battle. Secure the last place on our shrinking Earth, be the only one to survive the fast ride on Mercury and be the last one to not get confused on dusty Mars – because the magnificent crown only fits on one head.

Critical Zone was created as part of the artistic research project DE\GLOBALIZE as a playful approach to our permanent desire for power and the impact on our resources. It was finally displayed in the Kunstverein Freiburg in 2019. It was also part of the Steam Selection „best games from germany“.
