  "account": "Red Rising, a sci-fi series by author Pierce Brown, is set to make a digital comeback in 2027. The original six-book series took place on Mars, where a class system based on colors governed society. The Golds occupied the highest class and ruled over the other colored classes, with the Reds being the lowest. In the series, protagonist Darrow, a lowborn Red miner, led a revolution against the ruling Golds. The dystopian world of Red Rising gained renewed attention in 2021 when a tabletop adaptation was created and published by Stonemaier Games. This board game was praised for its faithful representation of the source material, allowing players to take control of rival houses and advance through the ranks. Now, a digital adaptation of the popular board game is in development by Canadian studio Emerald City Games. Emerald City Games is committed to creating a digital adaptation that remains true to the original tabletop game, including the use of 112 unique cards, dynamic effects, animations, and custom voice lines. The studio states that the digital game will faithfully recreate the original rules while adding stunning visuals and convenience features. Players will be able to control followers from rival houses, including Gold and Red characters, in a deck of cards format. The game will offer a challenging AI mode for solo play and support multiplayer for up to six players across platforms. The digital adaptation will be available on Steam, with a playable demo already available for those who wish to get an early look at the game. Emerald City Games promises a \"Red Rising as you've never experienced it before,\" and fans of the series can look forward to this new digital experience in 2027.",
