About the Game

Survive the storm. Face the unknown.
When the Sun Dies is a post-apocalyptic survival game where every night hides something more dangerous than hunger or cold. Explore vast forests, deserts, and snowy wastelands, gather resources, and fight to stay alive as the world collapses into chaos.

Radstorm: A Deadly Twist on Survival
Unlike traditional survival games, When the Sun Dies introduces the Radstorm, a catastrophic radioactive storm that turns the night into a battlefield. Monsters grow stronger, radiation spreads, and every kill drops rare stones that can enhance your weapons with powerful abilities. Will you risk everything to face the storm—or hide until it passes?

Craft, Fight, and Adapt
Instead of relying on random loot boxes, you’ll earn your weapons through quests and crafting. Collect materials, complete small missions, and forge unique weapons—each axe, spear, or rifle can have different stats, making your choices matter in every fight.

A Living, Breathing World

  • Dynamic weather and seasons: fog, rain, snow, and temperature changes keep you on edge.

  • Open world exploration: forests, rivers, mountains, and hidden ruins await.

  • NPC quests: rescue survivors, find lost items, and earn rewards.

  • Weapon customization: upgrade your gear with over 40 possible stats.

Every Decision Counts
In When the Sun Dies, survival is not just about food and water—it’s about courage. Do you fight through the Radstorm for glory and rare loot, or play it safe and risk falling behind?
