In "After Inc.," the specter of a zombie apocalypse looms large, presenting an ever-present danger to your settlement. Unlike typical mindless foes, these zombies represent a constant threat that can swiftly destroy your community if not approached with careful strategy. As you build and expand your settlement, it's crucial to remain vigilant against the undead.
The game introduces a diverse array of zombie types, each possessing unique strengths and weaknesses. Some may exhibit swift movements, while others demonstrate significant resilience, and some could even have special abilities that complicate their defeat. As your settlement develops, expect an escalation in both the frequency and intensity of zombie attacks, compelling you to continuously adapt your defensive strategies. You’ll need to upgrade defenses and deploy survivor groups on missions for scavenging supplies and combating zombies. Balancing fortification, exploration beyond your settlement, and searching for essential resources like food and medicine becomes vital.
Developed by Ndemic Creations, known for their hit game "Plague Inc.," "After Inc." combines elements of strategy simulation, survival city building, and mini 4X mechanics, crafting a rich gaming experience that serves as a spiritual successor to its predecessor.
The allure of "After Inc." lies beyond basic gameplay; it also presents players with complex moral dilemmas. When survival isn't guaranteed, you're confronted with challenging choices: Is bringing children into this perilous world a boon or a burden? Are dogs rendered mere pets or potential sources of nourishment?
Through various hypothetical scenarios, you'll be prompted to deliberate carefully before making decisions that will shape the future of your world. Will you lean towards democratic leadership or impose dictatorship?
"After Inc." unfolds in a post-apocalyptic world set several decades after the cataclysmic outbreak depicted in "Plague Inc." Here, the disastrous scientific endeavors of Incorporated have unleashed a global zombie virus. You find yourself among those fortunate enough to take refuge in underground bunkers. However, as safety diminishes, returning to the surface and reconstructing civilization amidst chaos becomes your primary mission.
Central to "After Inc." are its city-building mechanics. Starting from a modest settlement, effective management of resources and survivors allows you to cultivate a thriving community. Resource management is critical in this harsh environment; essentials like food, water, medicine, and building materials are limited, demanding tough decisions on resource allocation.
As you collect materials, craft tools, and construct vital infrastructure—farms, water purifiers, defensive walls, and medical stations—you're faced with the intricate nature of governing a society. As your population expands, addressing the varied needs of your inhabitants becomes essential for social stability. Survivor morale is paramount; discontent among them might lead to abandonment or rebellion. Thus, maintaining a balance between providing for basic needs and keeping your community secure from continuous zombie threats is necessary for success.
With every decision made in "After Inc.," the fate of your settlement hangs in the balance, as you strive to survive and rebuild in a world overrun by the undead.
