Dakini Rising

Dakini Rising is a voice-activated meditation game about breathing and flowing with the healing powers of the universe.

You play Dakini, child of the Earth and Sun. Earth has shattered and her inhabitants, the Ankoku, have lost their connection to the light of the Sun. Use your voice to liberate the suffering of the Ankoku.

Connect with your breath in ritual song. Explore, repair, heal and tend your way across a tale filled with teachings from Elders all around the world, imparting wisdom and caution. Join the mission as other Dakinis in multi-player cooperative play. Discover the root of Earth’s destruction, Connect the Elders, and ultimately learn how to cultivate breath with the power of your own voice.

Dakini Rising is a breathwork game that intends to oxygenate players while delivering meditations on the preciousness of all life on Earth.


How to Play:

Journey through space, exploring the Star Map where you will find Ankoku to rescue and discover hidden collectibles.



Perform Sounding activities using your voice. Upon completion, Ankoku will be released and become Wisdom Beings that you can interact with, revealing their story over time.



When enough Ankoku from the same tribe have been released, they will form a constellation that will open a Portal, allowing you to express yourself by building a gateway to Earth that is responsive to your voice and intent.



Building Collective Trust with a tribe gives you access to that tribe’s Keeper Site, a visually stunning sacred space where Wisdom Beings live and can be interacted with. You can customize Keeper Sites with your collectibles, such as placing magical stickers and even living spirits into the environment.



Protect the Keeper Sites from events known as Grave Disturbances, where you must reconcile discord and perform harmonizing Sounding activities to protect the Wisdom Beings and the integrity of their space



Once you’ve transformed the world for yourself, it’s time to look Beyond. Raise the collective community and unite with other players to defeat the Black Sun. Perform multiplayer sounding activities and be rewarded with a beautiful sound bath.

Dakini Rising is a soothing and whimsical game that invites players to explore the creativity within themselves. It is designed to appeal to casual gamers who enjoy relaxing or meditative experiences, as well as those seeking general self-expression. It is a game that is thematically about healing and the many layers that encompass it.
