BE CREATIVE WITH ENDLESS OUTCOMES


Attack others with drugs and traps; force addictions on other survivors.
Steal resources and paraphernalia; or lend them a friendly hand.

YOU MAKE THE CALLS

Every realm is different. Rewards are plentiful for hunters abroad...
Sleep outside the city for a different type of night.



Everyone has an addiction to something...right?
In cities with endless possibilities. Strive to stay clean of substances, or use them at will to reap the short term benefits.

FORTIFICATION & PROGRESSION

Secure your loot.

Stash drugs and cures.
Gang up with friends to stay safe from the dead and those still living with evil intentions




In WAR, building locations and objects are all random.
Adding a new level of unknown to every situation and open world sandbox.
What exists in one world, may never exist in another.
