About Afterworld

Lead a tribe of survivors, rediscover ancient technology, manage wasteland settlements and wage wars of conquest and political struggle in Afterworld, an original post-apocalyptic survival grand strategy game from Paradox Development Studio, the creators of Crusader Kings III and Hearts of Iron IV.

Storyline

The world you knew is gone, and its remains are ripe for the picking. To build an empire that spans the continent, first you will need to keep your tiny band of survivors alive: explore hostile wastelands, expand into new territories and rediscover lost technologies. Establish a handful of settlements, forge tribal alliances and clash with cultists, raider warlords, and the immortal Ancients who already think this world is theirs. As your nation expands, your experience will shift from a small-scale, approachable beginning into a Grand Strategy as rich and complex as you have come to expect from Paradox games.
