I'm a sucker for multiverse type stories, and this one nails the concept. I'm also a sucker for the idea of running a safe shelter/rest stop in the middle of the apocalypse. It's fun to see the society that would arise in this situation.

Was reminded of the story "And Then There Were (N-One)" by Sarah Pinkser. That one's a murder mystery, though, so I think it's darker in tone, despite its slightly more hopeful setting.

That exact story was a big inspiration for this game! 😄 I gave it a little shoutout in the playlist/credits area as well. It's so good, I've read it multiple times since it was first published!

That's what I get for not looking that close at the playlist/credits section. Nice to see another fan of the story out in the wild!
