The Time After is set a few generations after global warming has destroyed civilization. A ruthless survivor tries to explain how we ended up here through the stories handed down to him and the remains of the time before.

Fight the locals and loot the ruins to keep the survivor and his wheels going as he drives south to escape the killing heat. 

The game is a journey through a series of open world locations that help to explain how the time after came to be. Taking on the role of the grim survivor, the player will engage in third person shooting, driving and scavenging for supplies and ammo to continue their journey. The survivor shares his perspective on how things are and what went wrong in the time before.
