About Surviving the Aftermath

About this game

Developed by Iceflake Studios and published by Paradox interactive.

In Surviving the Aftermath, you'll be dropped in a post-apocalyptic future where resources are scarce, but there's plenty of opportunity for growth! Rebuild the world from its current devastating state, create a disaster-proof colony, protect your people, and restore life to the ghost of our planet.

Build & Manage Your People

Gather some survivors and start building up a colony with more than 130 buildings. Survive a harsh new world filled to the brim with dangers, and keep your eyes out on the terrifying natural disasters lest you want to have to rebuild.

Recruit Others

There are over 80 specialists for you to recruit, each with their own skills and motivations. Outfit them with the proper gear to defend your colony from bandits and wildlife, and watch your people thrive!

Never the Same

Whilst you keep some specialists to protect your people, you can send others to scavenge outside of the safety of your colony. The world is procedurally generated, meaning that you'll never play through the same one! 

Diplomacy

The apocalypse has reverted everything back to before technology, which means you'll have to rely on other colony leaders and practice your diplomacy, much like monarchs would. Whether you make allies and trade resources with them or make enemies and compete instead is up to you!

No Happy Endings, Just Hard Choices

Make difficult decisions that will cause ripple effects and cause a reaction within your colony. Just remember: your people's fate is in your hands, and everything you do will impact their happiness and well-being.

History

Throughout their journey, specialists might stumble upon mysteries from a forgotten past. Uncover the secrets surrounding the apocalypse and learn how to better prepare should it happen again.
