Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead
The epitome of a modern traditional roguelike: with turn-based play and a RPG-like skill progression system, it hearkens back to some of the major aspects of this genre. This game has an incredible depth, with a deep inventory system, vehicles and boats, NPCs with their own stories, and more.
In this game, you can…
- …gut an RV to build an armored APC with cameras, remote-controlled doors, solar panels, water collection, and a powered turret.
- …mutate into things like a cyborg, catgirl, or slime-mold creature, with your DNA rewritten over time by serums or radiation.
- …hotwire or salvage a car, weld a makeshift ram onto it, and smash through a lab wall or a story gate.
