Restore is part of an academic research project called RestoreID (HORIZON-CL6-2023-BIODIV-01-17).

The restore game is led by Dr Brad Duthie and Prof Nils Bunnefeld at the University of Stirling.

No download or signup required — Restore is compatible with modern browsers like Chrome, Safari and can be played on desktop or mobile. Just visit the itch page to start playing.
