Get Weird and Unfortunate Things Are Happening for PC

Weird and Unfortunate Things Are Happening is a turn-based RPG with survival elements, set in the ravaged city of Daybreak. The rest of the world believes the city has vanished; inside, mysterious beings treat humans as hosts for their amusement. You explore the ruins, search for supplies and secrets, meet survivors and other entities, and try to rescue Dottie before the city swallows you up.

Daybreak and its survivors

Alicia can see otherworldly creatures that others cannot, and she hides her strange powers from the world. She still wears her old baseball jersey, even though her team disbanded over a year ago. When her niece Dottie calls for help from Daybreak, Alicia sets out to save her. Dottie has been captured for a nefarious purpose.

Alicia is joined by Miriam, a secretary and gun aficionado who wants to escape the city, and Lamar, an overworked middle school English teacher. As you explore what remains of Daybreak, you can encounter other surviving citizens and make contact with the strange entities inhabiting the city. Surreal, otherworldly areas connect its broken urban shell.

Explore and survive

Scour the ruins for restorative items, money, obols and rare collectibles to sell for cash. Obols are a special currency used to buy skills. Exploration can also uncover equipment, hidden corridors between realities, puzzles involving eldritch languages and bizarre curios that help reveal Daybreak's mysteries.

Tactical battles

Combat rewards careful planning. You face eight different types of foe, as well as the mysterious Unknowns, whose strengths and weaknesses are hidden. More than 50 active and passive skills in the Skill Space let you customize your characters' battle styles.

Difficulty and length

Four difficulty levels let you adjust the challenge, even while playing. The estimated playtime is 15–20 hours.
