THE SUN IS DEAD.

Since turning into a Red Giant, the Earth has experienced cataclysmic damage unlike ever before. The Earth is burning, and life as we know it is at risk. Experts estimate Earth will be utterly barren in thirty years, but humans are determined to survive.

Pockets of humanity exist worldwide in camps and compounds, all competing for Earth’s limited resources. In this game, you play as one of these camps, striving for survival. You represent the Camp as a whole rather than as an individual. Your goal is to send out survivors to track, hunt, and collect resources while upgrading your Camp’s gear and fortifying its defenses to ensure survival against enemy camps encroaching on your territory.

OVERVIEW

Before the Sun Fades is a tactical skirmish game with light campaign elements. It always lasts six sessions (known as Months), each lasting around 30 minutes of playing time. A Month consists of three phases: Camp Phase, Catch Phase, and Combat Phase. The game starts with Month 0, a prologue, and ends with Month 5, the final boss fight. 

OBJECTIVE

You have five months to prepare and fortify your Camp's defenses against an enemy Camp encroaching on your territory. Hunt, eliminate and collect resources. Use these resources to upgrade your Camp and gear. You must defeat Hazmat, the leader of the enemy camp, and your Camp needs to survive with at least one population to win.
