Scavland: Ashfall

The world did not end. It stopped answering. Three nights ago a broken receiver spoke your name, and the lights led you to Lantern Refuge: a failing pump, an empty clinic, and forty-three people who made room for one more stranger. Scavland: Ashfall is a single-player, offline, top-down survival RPG with a complete authored campaign. Every region is hand-built, every chapter is written, and every decision you make is remembered by the ending. AN 18-CHAPTER CAMPAIGN Three acts take you from the first medicine run to the source of the Mist. Cross 11 regions: the abandoned homes of the Lowland, the flooded Pump Station, Sable Rail Yard, Glasswater Marsh, Cinder Foundry, the Buried Archive, Pale Ridge, the Quiet City, Cinder Citadel and the Hollow Spire. Twelve optional contracts and ten field notes fill in the frontier around the main road. SURVIVE THE FRONTIER Hunger, hydration and stamina drain as you travel. Toxic Mist eats through your air filter; bleeding does not stop on its own. Carry weight is limited to 24 kg, so what you bring back is a decision, not a reflex. Die in the field and your pack waits in a recovery cache; in Last Light mode, death retires the campaign for good. FIGHT WITH WHAT YOU FIND Seven firearms plus the knife, each with ammunition, reload time, condition and low-condition jams. Five weapon modifications across four slots, three armour tiers, frag grenades and a knife strike for when the magazine runs dry. Twin-stick aiming with target lock, or arrow-key aiming for keyboard-only play. Stealth awareness lets you sneak past a patrol instead of fighting it. THREE CUSTODIANS The Kilnkeeper waits in the crucible of Cinder Foundry. Marshal Voss holds Cinder Citadel behind shield relays. The Hollow Engine sits at the heart of the Spire. Each boss has multiple phases, warning marks to read and prerequisites you must complete in the region before it will show itself. BUILD LANTERN'S FUTURE Ten crafting recipes turn scrap, cloth and chemicals into filters, ammunition and repair kits. Trade with the quartermaster, repair and modify weapons at the workshop, store gear in the shared stash and rest at the free campfire. Six perks with three ranks each shape how you carry, aim and heal. YOUR CHOICES ARE THE STORY Who gets the medicine: the clinic or the traders? Which of three factions backs your journey? Do the algae samples protect your expedition or treat the already infected? Earlier decisions change resources, filter efficiency, reputation and the epilogue. Three final decisions with distinct endings wait at the source terminal. BUILT FOR PC AND XBOX Full gamepad support with Xbox button prompts, a 10-foot interface on TV, remappable keyboard bindings and mouse aiming. Three campaign slots with rolling backups and a checksum-protected save export. No account, no online connection, no purchases: the whole campaign is in the box.
