post-apocalyptic

In the year 2086, the world is a graveyard of ash and radiation. Seventy-four years ago, an unexplained solar surge triggered a catastrophic event known as The Meltdown-a chain reaction that detonated every nuclear reactor on Earth. The first to go were Chernobyl's aging reactors, followed by the rest, plunging humanity into an age of fire, famine, and unrelenting nuclear winter.

In the ruins of Seattle, now one of the most hostile wastelands on the planet, Cody Sarge emerges from a bunker that was once his family's salvation. Alone and desperate, he must navigate The Exclusion Zone, a nightmarish landscape of collapsed skyscrapers, irradiated rain, and grotesque mutants warped by decades of radiation exposure. But the creatures aren't the only horrors lurking in the ruins-something else stirs beneath the ruins, something drawn to the echoes of the past.

With only his father's old rifle and a fading map scrawled with warnings, Cody embarks on a journey to find any remnants of civilization. But in The Exclusion Zone, survival isn't just about fighting the elements or avoiding the monsters in the dark-it's about confronting the truth of what The Meltdown really was... and what still lingers at its core.

Echoes Beneath The Ashes by Amnesise

The world is dying. The infection doesn't just take lives-it warps them, turning people into something unrecognizable. Something monstrous. Survivors hide, whispering of those lost to the sickness, but the infected are not the only danger. Amias refuses to believe all hope is gone. He clings to the idea that some can still be saved. Eclipse knows better. She has seen what mercy costs, and she won't make that mistake again. Survival is the only rule. Forced together in a land where the infected aren't the only predators, they must fight to stay ahead of the growing darkness. Something watches from the trees, waiting. Hunting. And in a world where humanity is slipping away, one truth remains: They never let go.

Whimpers of the Light by EletrickBlue

The world has ended. It wasn't the big explosive thing everyone had expected. No single moment of collapse, no one person to blame. Only a long, insidious torment. A trial with no end. Alek knows this well. He's one of the last few, aimless and broken; part of those who roam the silent ruin. Until one day, he stumbles upon a house. A relic of the past. And through a simple game of chance and choices, he is set upon a path he never intended to walk. A path that will only lead to more deaths, more questions... and things crueller still. But it will also lead him to others - different from him in every way but one: they're survivors. People still holding on. In spite of everything.

Dust by angrychinchillanoise

All the earth is torn asunder. There used to be grass, and the sun used to be golden. Children played outside, climbing trees with smiles on their faces and grass stains on their knees. People worried about a million things that would soon be irrelevant, continuing without a clue of the disaster to come. Centuries later, what little is left of humanity survives in a society constructed beneath the surface of a glass dome, the world outside converted to little more than a desert wasteland. Survival is a routine rather than an effort, and all rules are surpassed by only one: if you want to survive, you never leave the dome. There's nothing alive out there. The radiation that soaks the earth makes sure of that. Until one day, someone finds a bloody, dust-covered handprint on the outside of the glass. Nothing will ever be the same again.
