London, 1793

The Tangle of Chionthar, 1492

In the dense, magical periphery of the Wood of Sharp Teeth near Baldur's Gate, the reach of the Flaming Fist is thin. Settlers and outcasts struggle against encroaching fey-corrupted flora and the economic squeeze of city-state tariffs while surviving on the edge of the Coast Way.

The North Philadelphia, 2005

Spring 2005 in North Philly finds a neighborhood trapped in the 'War on Drugs' era. As school budgets are slashed and the police employ aggressive zero-tolerance tactics, the open-air markets of the Badlands offer the only path to mobility. The protagonist, a student at Stovall Secondary, must navigate the crumbling infrastructure of the city and the absolute laws of the street where institutional failure is the only thing guaranteed.

The Division, 1970

The Berlin Wall is a decade old, hardening the divide between the socialist GDR and the capitalist West. In East Berlin (the Capital of the GDR), the Mark der DDR fuels a command economy defined by shortages and Stasi surveillance, while West Berlin sits as a subsidized democratic island within the Soviet bloc. Players navigate the frictions of the Cold War, from the Intershop's lure of Western goods to the quiet pressure of the SED party apparatus.

A magical alternate Earth, 1337

In a 1337 where humanity is but one of many sapient lineages—alongside the matriarchal Elephant-kin, the seafaring Dolphin-tribes, and the nomadic Corvid-clans—the world is defined by high-medieval survival. Lethal Aether-storms sweep the Ravaged Frontier, birthing warped monsters and shifting the landscape. Magic is rare and dangerous, seen as a burden of the 'Touch-gifted' who must guide their kin through a wilderness that is as sentient as it is hostile.

Germany, 1935

Starting on December 11th, 1935, you enter the soot-thick air of the Ruhr Valley. Whether toiling in the coal dust of a factory floor, managing a family farm, or navigating the machinery of local politics, your path leads toward the high-stakes world of state contracts and technological breakthroughs. Between 1935 and 1945, you can amass wealth in Reichsmarks, invent history-altering machinery, or build a personal industrial empire, all while balancing the rigid demands of a nation preparing for total war.

Germany, 1941

In March 1941, an unidentified celestial object impacted the Rhineland, carrying a mutagenic pathogen termed Necrosis Rabies. As a resident of a rural hamlet near the impact site, you have precisely one week to stockpile rations, fortify shelter, and navigate the rigid pressures of wartime Germany before the first 'biters' emerge from the crash site. The infected are driven by a metabolic frenzy and must consume flesh to avoid expiration.
