I think many of you have probably visited the official Rise page lately. The INSOMNIA SHEEP GAME opened on the single-player Insomnia promotion page at midnight on the 21st. It is a sheep-counting game made with pixel graphics, and it is said that about 70,000 people played it within just one hour of its release.

The mechanics are simple. You choose one of the six members and count sheep while avoiding obstacles for five minutes. I heard that you can see secret messages from each member when you enter Fever Time, so I’ve become interested in switching members and trying it out. I think it will be fun to compare our records. The game screen is simple, so I feel like I’ll get used to it quickly, but I also have a feeling my hands might get a bit busy.

The main single, "Insomnia," will be released at midnight on Monday, October 26. A fan event titled "RIZE into INSOMNIA" will be held at Space S50 in Seongsu-dong, Seoul, for four days starting from the release date until the 29th, featuring performances, talks, exhibitions, and interactive experiences. With a second full-length album also announced for next spring, it seems this single serves as the starting point. For now, I’ll wait in the game until the release.
