Our take on MAN STANDING
Rather than centering survival on shelter construction or crafting, the game frames it as a solitary journey through memories in an endless post-apocalyptic world. It also excludes quick-time events and formal tests, replacing those familiar story-game structures with exploration, creature combat, anomalies, and player messages.
