About this game
You’ve been assigned as a Subterranaut for Association of Scrap Allocation. This isn’t the job you applied for, but it’s the only one you got. Your sole responsibility is to gather scrap for the Association from the depths below the wasteland.
Your work begins on the train. You’ll route it to different abandoned stations across the wasteland. You won’t question why or how—you’ll just go where you’re told, because there’s nowhere else for you to be.
When the elevator takes you down, you’ll enter the dark, forgotten remains of facilities abandoned long ago. What you find there isn’t important. What’s important is that you return with something useful. If you don’t, someone else will.
.
You’re not alone in this. Use your radio to stay in contact with your team, but don’t expect any help if things go wrong. The train’s terminal controls bulkheads, cameras, lights, and more, but once the day ends, you might be left behind. It’s just how things are.
Scrap is what matters. The more you bring back, the more you justify your existence here. If you don’t succeed, don’t worry—the scrap will still find its way to the Association, with or without you.
You’ll encounter dangers down below, but they aren’t our concern. Your survival is secondary to the mission. The Association expects losses, and you’ve already been factored in.
