What Makes Rebel Inc. Stand Out
Can you stop the Insurgency? From the creator of Plague Inc. comes a unique and deeply engaging political/military strategic simulation.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This game is definitely worth the money id recommend anyone whos looking for a challenging simulator/strategy game this is even better than Plague Inc. Ladies and gentlemen.
This is even better than plague inc.
Been playing this for some time! Has a ton of replay value, and can be as easy or challenging as youd like it to be, just wish theyd role out the new map and governors!! Awesome game though, keep it up.
Definitely played for hours on end.
We enjoy the strategic aspects of this game and we like that you have to consider a lot of aspects to maintain stability and gain control.
Honestly if you like plaque inc but you want a longer version you should get this. Also this game shows how a government can last under horrible rule kinda like North Korea and China but this game really takes time to play and its really fun 5/5.
We were introduced to this game in 20 and finally learned how to play and it awesome,makes you think.
Endless replay value. Challenging. Nothing else like it. Cant wait for new updates.
This game brought us back to our international relations classes lol we enjoyed how this encompasses all aspects of a COIN and regional stability mission! Well done.
This game is a very strategic game, and thats what makes it absolutely awesome! There are so many events, decisions, and options you have in the game! Best game ive ever installed on our phone.
We enjoy the game a lot we just wish you could make like a sandbox mode and make your own terrain based on what you think a battle should look like and be able to set up like small countrys or rebel groups and let them fight it off to see who can stabilize a region and you can control it like naming the groups or countries and also building your own landscapes.
This is like pandemic but with a nice twist.
Fun and quick game that gets your brain moving.
One of the best games we have ever played. The Opium Expansion and the oil rig expansion are worth the money, you cant let the terrorists make more money than you.
This game is great it still is lacking in most of the content that the PC version has most importantly custom scenarios. It is a great strategy game we highly recommend.
Although, we find the difficulty mode ridiculous this is a fun game that makes you think about what youre doing before making a move. We find it even more intriguing than Plague, Inc. And we think that game is awesome. Good job.
Lovely and enjoyable, can play for hours.
One of the most re-playable games ever and never gets boring.
This is a great game but we were lost for about 20 minutes trying to figure out how to do anything the tutorial is wack but once you get the hang of it its a great strategy game just pay attention to what the public wants and train national troops quickly.
Insurgency is leading cause of conflict today. As the game implies its not something that can be deafened in a conventional way or a quick way. We hope they will develop additional features such as helicopters, natural resources, divide and conquer, etc.
Great game for strategic gamers.
The title says it all. Play it. Its a great game when traveling or just wanting a challenge. Simple mechanics with tons of ways to figure out the problems of the region.
No Ads and pretty good gameplay which we enjoyed for weeks.
Very fun and understandable, cant wait for future updated.
This is a short and simple review fyi! This game is an amazing game with alot of diversity within the game. Not only that but its quite a strategic game and really makes you challenge and think about your actions because it can really crumble fast. Just a small recommendation make different modes that dont take a long time to earn and add some more diversity by doing that.
Engaging and complex game play.
Good time passer and manager game. A little bit of a learning curve, one of the better games available on the market.
This game is one of the best strategy games Ive ever played. Everything works hand in hand with what you do and every choice is lead on to the end of the game. This game is much enjoyable.
La idea del juego us parece genial definitivamente necesito mas juegos as.
It is very very good and satisfying to win.
It is pretty real situations and yeah thats really it.
Im really enjoying the game and our $2.00 were well spent.
Pretty good game, we recommend for anyone who likes military sims.
Enjoy it! Although it can get a little repetitive once you understand the premise, enjoy playing a strat game.
Amazing and addicting, hoping for future updates.
Worth the money very strategic and takes inspiration from plague inc. Simple yet complex.
The one thing we would change about this game is the amount of insurgents that enter the zone on casual difficulty. Its really hard to beat.
Better than Plague Inc and we love plague Inc.
Well thought out game with realistic consequences and reactions to players moves. Improvements and updates are nice to see as well as expansions of game scenarios and experiences.
If youre a fan of PI, youll enjoy this. It feels familiar without being repetitive, and turns the tables with you rushing towards a peace deal (similar to the cure) instead of trying to stop it.
This game is really good if you try it out we would love to see a video on YouTube for this.
This game is great you should buy it. All the expansions make it so much better and make sure you also play the campaign.
Just completed the fist campaign successfully, and its a very fun concept! If youre a fan of Plague Inc. Which was made by the same developers, you will feel vaguely familiar with this game right off the bat! We enjoy the whole winning hearts and minds, and fighting the insurgents is fun too.
We only got this because of an event notification in plague inc saying this was the best game ever. Havent played it yet, still 5/5 Here again, the game is great, enjoying everything so far. Keep up the good work.
This game is totally worth it. Once you start playing you never stop.
If you like Ndemics other game, the very addictive and fun Plague Inc. Then give this one a try. It has very similar mechanics and interface – but better graphics, more options, more tactics, and a variety of (nicely drawn) map levels. In Plague Inc., you try to infect the world with a plague. This time youre the good guy using the same game mechanics but infecting a war-torn region with stability.
Good game fun 5stars would play again.
The game is a thinking mama game. Its like an evil version of Chess.
Its a really good game, cured our boredom for the time we were in school.
Pretty fun, only gripe is that you have to pay $4 to get to other modes other then the first mode on top of the $1 you originally have to pay.
