Under Our Sun

Players take on the roles of survivors in a post-apocalyptic world where solar storms have broken modern infrastructure and the northern hemisphere is a desolate wasteland. Each round represents a day split into phases; players explore the map tile by tile, trigger events, scavenge for loot and resources, and craft items to upgrade characters and a shared shelter. Combat against hostile humans, animals, and unknown threats occurs regularly, and changing weather and limited water force constant resource and risk management. The game supports fully cooperative play or a semi-cooperative variant with a possible traitor, and scenarios set varied objectives and difficulty levels.
