This is a simple post-apocalyptic futuristic survival game. The world was more advanced than ours. It had rampant cybernetics and genetic mutation. Everything sort of fell apart, no big nuclear war or anything, the world just sort of dried up and collapsed. That's when the mutants and the radiation storms came. The government is probably still out there, somewhere, but not here. The four original players are a few people who have been surviving in bunker, but you're going to run out of food soon. You have to make a few hard decisions in order to survive.

This is the trial round of this game, expect there to be some quirks and on the fly fixes. But all the systems are ready to be tested.

Its first come first serve and anyone who wants to provide feedback totally should join.

Do we do anything with the stats?

[Spiderking50]

I was going to leave the stats alone at first, give everyone sort of the same starting level and see how they changed/progressed. They will change as the game goes on. Three people is good enough for me, someone can join later.

Its the beginning of day 1 (of the game).You are sitting in the small bunker, you have been there over two weeks, for now you have four days worth of food and water. But you know that once that's gone the hunger will come fast. The bunker's  small armory has already been ransacked. Inside is a single pistol and 30 rounds. In the kitchen there is a tiny pocketknife that you've been using to open the food. Lastly there is a first aid kit and a strange black box. They were hidden under the far bed, but you had discovered them over your long stay. You must decide what to do now, do you face the deadly world outside, or do you slowly die in this bunker?

[StrawBarrel]

Jerzy gets up from his bed and walks over to the black box. He tries to pick up the black box and examine it.

(Do we need to bold actions?)

[GiglameshDespair]

((We do have four players.))

Jane sighed.
"I guess we'll have to go outside, sooner or later."

Inspect the pistol. Is a revolver, semi-automatic, etc. What caliber?

[My Name is Immaterial]

"I don't know about you, but I aint gonna starve. Outside's gotta be better smelling, at least."
Rich picks up his jacket from the chair it was draped over, and hoists his briefcase before checking the contents. With a satisfied nod, confirming that everything was there, he stuffs a day of food for himself inside the briefcase.
"Y'all gonna starve and rot? Or are ya gonna go outside."

[SOLDIER First]

"I'm going outside, for sure."
Sonja stands up from sitting on her bed.
"Nobody to trade with in here."

[Spiderking50]

Jerzy gets up from his bed and walks over to the black box. He tries to pick up the black box and examine it.

(Do we need to bold actions?)

Nah, I'll bold narration though.
You examine the black box. It clicks open. Inside is a green vial of glowing liquid. It saids "mutagen" on the side.

 

((We do have four players.))

Jane sighed.
"I guess we'll have to go outside, sooner or later."

Inspect the pistol. Is a revolver, semi-automatic, etc. What caliber?

.45 ACP. It's in good shape too.

[StrawBarrel]

The Polish man closes the black box and places it back down. He grabs the first aid kit and heads to exit of the bunker.
"Everybody ready to go?" Jerzy asks.

[SOLDIER First]

Sonja shrugs.
"I don't have much to take with..."
