Afterworld — Survivor's Field Guide
A text-rich introduction and starter guide to Afterworld, an upcoming post-apocalyptic grand strategy game set in a procedurally reshuffled North America.
Field notes
The guide frames Afterworld as a strategy game whose systems widen as its population grows: scarcity first governs a small band, then reappears as logistics, laws, diplomacy, and political legitimacy. Its map uses recognizable North American geography but reshuffles resources, tribes, and dangers for each procedural expedition. The page also describes migration as a strategic option when a region runs dry, and links outward to a Steam page, developer diary, screenshots, and several pieces of games-media coverage.
