In Ancient Egypt, the day begins normally. Ra, the mighty god of the sun, rises in the east at dawn, rides his boat across the sky, and descends into the Underworld at dusk. All is well and good. The next day at dawn, he does not emerge again. As one might guess, this is somewhat problematic. Of course, the sun is necessary to prevent small annoyances like "freezing to death" and "eventual, inescapable starvation-" but only the fortunate will survive to die in the dark. Ra's might cowed demons and sustained the other gods; without him, monsters that feared the light of the day will walk free. Eventually, the entire Egyptian pantheon will be helpless stop them. An epic task falls to twenty-four champions from all across Egypt: to venture into the Underworld, following Ra's path down the River of Night. If the sun god has been captured or detained, rescue him. If an enemy stands in their way, kill him or die trying. The odds are stacked against them, but the consequences of failure are far, far worse than death. After all, if they're too slow, there may not be a sun left to save...

In Panem, there was the unspoken rule: do not forget where you came from. Do not forget the ashes and blood that spilled for you to live here. The little penance of yearly tributes let no one forget, but as the years passed by, people became distanced from the plights that Panem had built its structure upon. Indeed, people had drawn off, confused and bored of the world in which they were born into. The games became weak, they became brittle like the bones of those who had died nearly a century before. But no longer. It is time to go back to our roots.

The Fallout world is not much different from our own. It is rather a world that diverged onto its own path. The world as we know it went in an opposite direction after the Cold War ended. Its style stayed completely the same, but its technology advanced to incredible heights. But it wasn't perfect. Inflation, corruption and lust for power consumed everything. In the year 2077, a great war broke out and by its end planet earth became a wasteland; a nuclear fallout. Its inhabitants, however, found shelter underground in advanced vault facilities. Shielded away from the horrors of earth's mutated and radiated surface. For decades, Vault 416 remained sealed ever since the day of the blast. Like many of the other hundred vaults, they remained isolated, underground and created a civilisation of their own, not showing a single care for the outside wastelands. Until the wastelands came to them.

It has been 12 years since Celina led the rebellion, 12 years for a new generation to be born and grow, and 12 years for the monsters and humans of Monstrum to forget. Celina McRogers, along with the 43rd Victor, Nicholas Connelly are dead, both found shot in the head only months after the Games finished. The rebellion crumbled in on itself, with no leader and no plan of action, those that weren't captured and killed, went into hiding, hoping that one day their work could be continued. President Scarewell, despite being weak and sick- now an openly known fact- has found dedication and love from many of his people. Except for those he hasn't. The fences of Monstrum have grown weak, and without the President's knowledge, mutations have been born throughout the country, accounting for a quarter of the population. De Nova is overflowing, and the Guardians can't keep up with every case reported; the mutants have gotten good at hiding, and for the first time, they are ready to fight back against the man that has tried to keep them caged. The final Games in the Monster Games series. Do you have what it takes to eliminate the President and all that he has built?
