Under Our Sun invites you into a gripping cooperative or semi-cooperative exploration experience set in a harrowing post-apocalyptic world where life hangs by a thread, dependent on the whims of the sun. When a colossal asteroid strikes the sun, the earth descends into chaos. Modern technology has vanished, leaving the northern hemisphere transformed into a barren wasteland ravaged by relentless solar storms. In this tumultuous new reality, anarchy reigns supreme, and survival is the only rule. Players will step into the shoes of brave survivors, banding together to pursue a common goal. But be warned—trust is a scarce commodity, as not everyone may share the same objectives! As the gameplay unfolds, you’ll become a vital member of one of the last remaining honorable communities. Choose from four unique characters (or six with expansions), each with distinct strengths and weaknesses, as you venture into the perilous wastelands to secure the group’s survival and tackle vital tasks. You can play the game in a fully cooperative manner, or spice things up with a potential traitor lurking among your ranks! The core box includes a variety of missions tailored to different difficulty levels, playtimes, and strategic styles, ensuring every session is fresh and challenging. In Under Our Sun, each turn represents a single day, skillfully divided into morning, noon, evening, and night phases. Explore the landscape tile by tile, triggering events scattered across the map. Hunt for invaluable loot and scavenge for resources to craft essential items, enhancing both your character and your shelter. Prepare for intense life-or-death confrontations against humans, animals, or even more ominous threats. Adapt to ever-changing weather conditions, as even the simplest tasks can turn into desperate fights for survival. Success in this unforgiving terrain hinges on efficient resource management, maintaining your health, and ensuring a steady water supply. Through collaboration and the clever use of individual abilities, players will need to unite to navigate the chaos, achieve survival, and uncover their ultimate goal—whatever that may be!
