Flame of Rebellion is a freeware RPG-Maker 2000 game by the creator Lil_Lucy. The leading global powers are threatened by an unknown force, that calls themselves by the name of "The Empire". No one knows how, but they possess technology that is way beyond what should be capable by modern human standards and seem to be unstoppable. Even though these scary events happen all around the globe, some are yet mentally unaffected by all of this and live their lives like every other day, which includes the protagonist Roland. His day starts off as a normal school day, but since a lot of bus drivers called in sick, out of fear of a possible war, he is about to arrive late. When he arrived at the school, even his town is falling under attack by this mysterious force. Being one of the few survivors of the attack, he and the others form a local rebellion group, in their attempt to stop the enemy.
