TABLETOP GAME POSTHUMAN SAGA

You are a survivor in a near-future Europe that has collapsed under the weight of its own political mistakes, in the aftermath of a bloody class war fueled by genetic modifications. In Posthuman, you traveled to the last bastion of organized human society in the area: The Fortress. A year later, you have become an active part of this society and have honed the skills you need to fulfill your role there, but the mutants are gaining ground...

Posthuman Saga is a standalone survival game set in the Posthuman universe. You play as an experienced member of the Fortress militia, dispatched beyond the defensive perimeter to explore and, hopefully, reconnect with outposts that the Fortress has lost contact with, while searching for points to scavenge for resources along the way. You must forge a path through a ravaged land where resources are scarce and mutants roam the ruined mansions and forests.

Like in the original Posthuman, this is a survival journey in a sandbox style, but the gameplay system in Posthuman Saga differs from that of the first game in the series. Players earn rewards by completing various objectives that suit different characters and play styles. It emphasizes tactical choices on two levels: the journey expressed through an innovative puzzle with a modular tile map and the individual story and battles. The latter are fast-paced, card-based scenarios that involve tough choices with future consequences. Posthuman Saga features over a hundred, intricately crafted story scenes with a simple "push your luck" mechanic that complements the emergent narrative the game offers. Mutation is a way of life in the world of Posthuman and can have its advantages, but it can easily spiral out of control...
