AfterWorld

AfterWorld was a free post-apocalyptic science-fiction MMORPG set in ruined Siberia, built around more than one hundred freely trained skills, gathering, manufacturing, property and a player-dependent real-money-linked economy before its official service disappeared.

Why you might like it

  • A large skill catalog allowed characters to develop combat, extraction, manufacturing and commercial professions without selecting a fixed class.
  • The economy was designed around player labor, giving miners, crafters, property operators and merchants practical interdependence.
  • Post-apocalyptic Siberia provided a rarer regional setting than the American wastelands commonly used by survival games.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • The official service is gone, and the unrelated modern Paradox strategy game named Afterworld should not be confused with this MMO.
  • A real-money-linked economy introduced financial risk and could make ordinary combat or crafting efficiency feel like a monetary calculation.
  • Surviving documentation describes many planned professions more clearly than it demonstrates their maturity in the live game.
