After Inc.

After Inc. is a simulation game set in a post-apocalyptic Britain where zombies threaten human settlements. You lead a group of survivors, gather resources, build a home for the community, and work to protect its residents as you expand.

What is the goal in After Inc.?

Your objective is to help survivors rebuild their civilization. The game combines settlement development with survival: people need places to live and work, while the community must gather supplies and prepare for zombie attacks. As you explore the ruins of the past, you can collect resources and work toward establishing a resource-rich settlement.

How do resources and construction work?

Resource management is central to the challenge. The description identifies residents’ energy and available water among the resources to monitor, and notes that players must also consider how much time different processes take. Choices about what the community needs most affect how limited supplies are used. Buildings listed include houses, farms, and lumber mills; construction and planning help expand the settlement and support its residents.

The game also asks players to weigh comfort against bare survival and to consider which projects deserve investment. Rather than treating construction as separate from survival, the settlement’s development depends on managing supplies and tasks while keeping residents protected in their buildings.

How do you explore and control the game?

Exploration begins in a broad world covered by mist. The description says actions are performed by tapping buttons on the screen. Areas on the left side of the screen are used to manage residents’ energy, available water, and resources added to the ground. The source does not detail further control schemes.

What decisions shape the community?

Players choose a leadership style, including democracy or autocracy, to guide the community’s development. The description also highlights difficult social decisions, such as how to regard children and whether dogs are pets or food sources. These choices are presented as part of shaping society and deciding what the settlement prioritizes.

What does the campaign include?

The campaign involves managing multiple settlements across a damaged landscape through interconnected missions. Its chapters introduce challenges and unlock more advanced tools and strategies. The game also describes a selection of 10 leaders, each with different bonuses and decision-making styles. Researching old technologies and developing new ones are among the activities available as the settlements grow.

How does the game handle threats?

Zombies remain a danger near newly established settlements. Players must gather resources, produce weapons, and defend the community against attacks. The source also describes zombie behavior as based on research, but does not specify the mechanics behind that simulation.
