About the Game

The world has ended. Now it’s up to you to make sure what’s left survives.

The Prepper is a turn-based survival and management game where every decision could be the one that saves—or dooms—your bunker.

🧩 Key Features

  • Prepping Phase (Days 1–7) – Stock up from a limited shop, manage your budget, and prepare for the unknown.

  • Daily Survival – Each day brings new challenges: random events, system failures, morale breakdowns, and apocalyptic weather.

  • Occupant Management – Each survivor has unique skills and careers that affect scavenging, crafting, engineering, and morale.

  • Scavenging Missions – Risk the outside world to find rare items, blueprints, and resources… or lose everything.

  • Dynamic Event System – Hundreds of daily events where choices matter, leading to resource changes, item gains/losses, or even death.

  • Multiple Scenarios – AI Uprising, Asteroid Impact, Alien Invasion, and more—each with unique weather, events, and items.

  • Replayability – No two runs are the same thanks to randomized events, weather streaks, and scenario-specific challenges.

  • Leaderboard – Compete to see if your score can beat other players.
