About Sheltered
✦ AI summary
Keep your family alive in an underground bunker by managing resources, crafting supplies, and making tough moral choices in this deep strategy game set after nuclear apocalypse. Send family members out to scavenge the wasteland, engage in turn-based combat against threats, and watch your survivors develop unique skills and trauma as they struggle to survive one more day.
Panting, scared, the shelter airlock smashes down behind you. You wish you did not have to go outside, but you do. It would be easier to give up. But you don’t. The hardship, the hunger, the thirst. The fear. You keep reminding yourself why you stay alive. Why you do this. Then you hear it. “Daddy you’re back.” You wife’s face lights up and you open a bag full of medical supplies. You need not tell her how you got them. You simply enjoy your small victory in this, the harshest of times. In the post-apocalyptic world, you must keep your family alive in your underground bunker in this deep strategy game from Unicube...
Sheltered is a post-apocalyptic disaster management game that gives a whole new meaning to the term “nuclear family”. Given a head-start over the billions lost in a nuclear holocaust, you must gather as many supplies as possible en route to the concrete underground shelter that will soon become your family home for the foreseeable dreary future.
With all hope lost, how will you cope in this bleak new world? How you handle the many moral choices you'll encounter on a daily basis could be the difference between your family surviving or dying. Combat claustrophobia, radiation and mental exhaustion as you cling desperately to life in the cramp, cold and scary underground shelter. You’ll have to leave the scant protection the shelter offers behind as you’re forced to venture outside into the dangerous desolate wasteland to scavenge for vital supplies which could ensure your families survival for just one more day.

i hnstly like it
good
I have no memory of playing this game. My laptop has been borderline unusable for a good year now, but I've finally gotten it fixed (was such an easy issue I kept procrastinating), and went to play some games to see how they run. I saw I have 50 hours of gameplay on this. I have no idea what it is, but I'm going to assume I loved it and leave a good review
Amazing time-sink. Love this.
Needs more cheeseburgers 9.9/10
