Dark Future

Brief description:
An extreme natural catastrophe happened and our world suffers severe changes! Full continents have been submersed and millions of people have died. The world become no more than a few isolated islands populated with the survivors of that major disaster. The present situation is chaotic! The only things that live on those islands are hunger, fear, violent behavior, cruelty, war… only the stronger can make the difference and assume the control of the new civilization! The player begins on one of those remaining islands, New York. The central city of violence and organized gangs! He must join one gang and try to conquer and dispute with othersgangs, the island lasting resources. The
only way to be successful on your task is to raise your overall skills to the limit - Fighting and Working. These fighting skills will grant you the chance to be a superior fighter in any kind of battle field and with all kind of weapons. And these working skills will provide you for example, the capacity to do your own weapons using the Island resources. But gladly New York Island isn't the only place for action, there are many other surrounding islands to explore and each island has a natural resource that don't exist in no another place. So the player is obliged to visit all the islands to conquer all the available resources. To travel from island to island, the player needs to acquire sufficient fame and sufficient money to buy a passport. Fame is earned by being skilled.

Be a battle freak or a work fanatic and everybody will now of your existence! Even newbie's players have a job to do; they can amuse themselves killing weaker NPCs to raise their skills, fame and money… preparing for the greater missions. Well, isn't this the craziest world or what? We expect great things from this game, hope you like it!
