Synopsis

2. Blurb
The year is 2145 and it has been 132 years since nuclear and biological
warfare devastated the Earth. Barely any nation survived after the aftermath of North
Koreas outburst; No-one knew what kind of weapons they were producing. One the
28th October 2013, North Korea launched 46 nuclear missiles and 76 biological
warheads devastating more than 15 major countries including the UK, USA and
Germany. Many took refuge in the underground metro systems and bunkers before the
collapse of civilization, leading only a handful of the human race to survive in each
country. This is the story of London's downfall.
86 years after the bombs fell, groups of adventurers, concealed with gas masks and
thick apparel, began to leave the safety of the London underground to observe and
explore the world outside. When they returned, they brought tales of misery,
unimaginable destruction and horrific creatures roaming the land.
Some years later, many more began to flood out of the metros and begin constructing
a new village called Charing to begin an unexpected new chapter of human history.
Despite the harsh wasteland, the remaining humans survived and attempted to begin
growing and making resources such as food and weapons. Although their numbers
were small and very slowly increasing, their determination to survive was strong.
In 2145, the village began to see more frequent attacks from monsters. Our main
character at this time is 26 years old. His job was a watchman and it was to spot
possible attacks and anything out of the ordinary. One day whilst doing his usual shift,
he spotted something in the far distance. A group of what appeared to be humans, but
they were not from the village. After watching their movements, a group of soldiers
within the village decided to go out into the wastes and search for these survivors.
This is where your story begins...

3. Story
map
At the start of the game, the player starts
as John Graves at the age of 12. The player
helps with making Charing (the village) and
this is the part where he falls into the pit of
chemicals and radiation after running from a
monster.
The next scene shows John at the age of 13
where he is suddenly able to control
elements such as water and fire and have
telekinesis. The other people at Charing are
shocked and not sure what to do.
The next scene shows John at the age of 17.
His new powers have become more powerful
over the years and everyone sees John as a
great help to the community. Using powers
such as telekinesis, John is able to lift heavy
objects with ease and help out with
construction. This scene also shows John
doing his watch tower job. The layer also
begins training with Johns super powers and
are taught how to use and control them.
Combat is also taught here too.
The best thing to do here is to return to Charing to
inform the people of what has happened, but when
John gets back, he finds another group of creatures
are attacking the town. In an absolute massacre,
nobody survives and John is left to wonder around
the fallen civilization. A sad scene is played when
John finds his father barely alive and mother dead.
He is told by his father he must find the other
group of survivors.
Now, the player has the freedom
to explore the entire map as they
wish. There are plenty of side
missions, main missions and things
to explore within the map. The
main mission however is to get to
the eye located on the map. When
John and the group of soldiers gets
there, they are ambushed by
strange mutated creatures where
only John survives.
This is where John spots the
unknown group of survivors in the
distance whilst on watch. The
player has to inform the head of
the town whilst also some side
mission will be available to earn
rewards in Charing.
After the player is done searching
the town, the next main mission is
to head to the eye on the map
again. This is where Johns abilities
are vital as he will need to use
various powers in order to survive
and get across areas or open new
ones up.
Once at the eye, a small camp is
see but is empty. Scavenging
around a bit, the player should
come across a notepad with details
of where the new town ‘Belgrave’
can be found. Now the player
heads to the new location which
can be seen on the map.

4. There is a part here when the
ceiling collapses and it separates
the player from the rest of the
team, so they have to split up.
There are a lot of levels here
where the player feels isolated
and many moments of terror will
be implemented
Once they have arrived at the station,
but it is highly radioactive in some
areas. The players gas mask will not
protect them majorly. The player and
his team then get to the room with the
computer which will enable them to
have clean water, however, it is still
highly radioactive. Johns powers are
able to keep him protected from the
radiation, but the others don’t look like
they will make it. In an attempt to try
to save humanity, John tells the others
to try to get back to Belgrave as they
will die quickly in the control room. The
player then must sacrifice their
character and send him into the room
and get into the computer system to
enable the water flow. Unfortunately,
the radiation is too much to bare so
after John activates the machine, he
finds himself unable to escape in time
and falls to his death.
Whilst here, everyone travels into
the metro system as this is the
only way to get to the station. In
the metros, a strong sense of fear
will be felt as areas will be dark
and many strange mutations will
stalk and scare the player and
jump out at them.
After helping some citizens with
their own unique and different
missions, the head of the town
calls for John to carry out a
special mission which would mean
the town would have access to
fresh, clean water. John and a
team of 4 more have to travel to a
place near the London eye which is
quite far away. Many events occur
on the way including the death of
one soldier.

When the player arrives, they see
a town much larger than Charing
was and full of survivors. Guards
outside the town nearly shoot the
player, mistaking him for a
monster, but then they allow him
entry so that he doesn’t die. This
opens up a new town for the
player and many more optional
missions become available.
At first, the player is avoided as
the towns people are unsure of
whether he is bad or good as he
has strange powers. After talking
to the head of the town, he sends
you to do some missions for him
such as scavenge an area for
weapons or food. Once the head of
the town trusts him, he tells
everyone John is friendly and his
given a home to stay in.
