After the long-awaited nuclear war finally broke out between the USSR and the USA, those who managed to survive were, overnight, pushed back almost into the Stone Age. The fragile shell of civilization peeled away in an instant: faces held only emptiness, and in people’s eyes there was nothing but a thirst to live. Ahead lay a new world—strange mutations, deadly anomalous zones, cannibals, and merciless creatures. Now there is only one law: strike first—or you won’t get up again.
Survivors sometimes envy the dead: with the darkness came hungry monsters. Lethal anomalies lie in wait all around, patiently waiting for prey. Food supplies burned away in the nuclear fire, and there isn’t enough surviving to go around. In a moment, people turned savage, becoming predators, and there remained only one goal—to survive, survive at any cost.
