Entrada Interactive is now recruiting for Canyonlands!

Canyonlands Information
Canyonlands is a brutal, survival-based multiplayer online RPG set in the near future where the world has been destroyed and devastated by nuclear wars. Most of the Earth's surface is now covered in deadly radiation. Each day mankind's numbers are declining due to radiation sickness, pollution, infertility, birth defects, starvation, and the brutality of the remaining survivors. All core infrastructure has been eliminated - government, electricity, gas, sewer, medicine, transit, telecommunications, radio, and all other services which make up a civilized society.

Man has been retreating into the harsh outlands of the "old" world to survive. Most die during the journey due to cold or starvation, while many others die from encounters with muties (mutated humans) or to the hands of roaming bandit groups that will quickly rob and kill anyone they find.
