About Hard Times
Hard Times is an urban survival game in which you experience life as a homeless man in an indifferent metropolis. You search through junk, beg for money and try to avoid corrupt police officers and citizens concerned with decorum. Hunger, cold and long rainy nights are part of daily survival, while finding a decent meal brings relief.
Scavenge and craft
You build tools and craft or recycle objects to obtain resources. You can make furniture, workbenches, kitchens, beds, cardboard boxes, storage containers and other items.
Find a place to live
You can settle in an abandoned property, build a base in the city, live in a homeless camp or move your belongings each day with a cart and sleep somewhere different each night. Theft and looting can become ways to survive.
Survive the city
You hunt rats and fish for radioactive fish, which you cook over an open fire in an old, rusty bin. You can contract illnesses and use drugs, and face the cold and indifference of city life.
