Atomic Exile

Atomic Exile is a top-down extraction shooter set in the desert wastelands of near-future America. You explore devastated ruins, visit enclaves and encounter survivors, raiders, mutated beasts and rogue machines. Procedural generation makes each run different, so revisiting an area does not produce the same experience.

Scavenge and trade

You begin with only the bare essentials. Scavenge clothing and food in the wasteland, then return to town to trade for supplies. Find valuable items to sell for cash, and stock up on medicine, food, water and bullets. If you plan to drive, bring fuel and tools.

Travel by vehicle

Abandoned vehicles lie among the ruins, and you can try to repair some of them with fuel, tools and a little ingenuity. A running engine makes noise and may attract trouble. Search each vehicle’s trunk for anything the previous owner left behind.

Modify weapons

Find weapons and adapt them to different situations. You can add enhanced sights, improve handling with better grips, swap magazines and make other modifications.

Stay alive

The wasteland’s inhabitants watch for travellers. Keep out of sight and stay quiet to avoid attracting attention; even turning a door handle can alert nearby enemies. Too much noise can bring trouble, and those who fail to stay cautious risk becoming prey.

Look after your health with medical supplies, food and water. Rest when you need to, run when necessary and drive when you can.
