Build Your Settlement
Construct and upgrade buildings across 6 slots — barracks, workshops, med bays, water purifiers, radio towers, and armories. Each building unlocks new capabilities: recruit survivors, craft weapons, heal the injured, and fortify your defenses against raider attacks.
Recruit Unique Survivors
Every survivor has a unique backstory, personality traits, and special abilities. From vault dwellers and ex-raiders to fallen doctors and escaped slaves — each origin grants different stat bonuses and perks. Form bonds between survivors, equip them with weapons and trinkets, and watch their stories unfold through combat and survival.
Tactical Grid Combat
Deploy squads to explore the wasteland map and engage in turn-based tactical combat on grid battlefields. Use cover, flanking, overwatch, and special abilities. Face raiders, mutant beasts, rogue robots, and worse. Every decision matters — survivors can be permanently injured or killed.
Resource Management & Crafting
Balance four resources — caps, scrap, food, and water — to keep your settlement running. Scavenge the wasteland for materials, craft powerful weapons and armor at your workshop, and trade with passing caravans. Every turn forces tough choices about where to spend your limited supplies.
Roguelite Progression
Each run tells a different story. Campaign modifiers change the rules, random events test your adaptability, and permadeath means every loss is permanent. Complete chapter milestones to unlock new content and push deeper into the wasteland. How long can your settlement survive?
