11 itemsAbout the Game
Carbon is a science fiction top-down Action RPG set in a future dystopian earth, where human life is worth less than the sum of its parts.
Earth is gone. Abandoned. An accident during a terraforming research project rendered it a hostile place. Continents became overwhelmed with a mutation of nature. A new plague feeds on the source of energy, covering the planet's surface. Life, augmented or otherwise is no longer safe on Earth. Thousands of vast cities -post-apocalyptic settlements for Earth's evacuated survivors - a new home to the majority of mankind, now orbit the darkened planet.
Welcome to the world of the future, where augmentations are an everyday part of life. Corporations reign, and Earth is no longer the center of human life. Welcome to Carbon.
