About

Bunker 06

Features
Read full description

The sirens have stopped, but the real nightmare is just beginning. Bunker 06 is an immersive and atmospheric survival game where every decision you make is a matter of life and death. Locked in a bunker with your family, you must manage dwindling resources, fend off looters, and maintain your sanity. But Bunker 06 changes the rules: The wasteland is actually your own neighborhood. Using real-world map data, Bunker 06 transforms the areas around you into a post-apocalyptic exploration zone. Need supplies? Send your family on an expedition to the actual pharmacy around the corner or the grocery store in your neighborhood. FEATURES: • REAL-WORLD EXPLORATION: A unique GPS mechanic that turns real locations around you (supermarket, pharmacy, hardware store) into explorable areas. • RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: Carefully spend your water, soup, and medicine stocks. Starvation and sickness are always right around the corner. • DYNAMIC SKILL SYSTEM: Family members start with random skills in every game. A 'Handyman' father can easily repair a broken ventilation system, while an 'Observer' mother can find hidden frequencies on the radio. • TOUGH DECISIONS: Will you help a desperate stranger banging on the bunker hatch, or will you protect your own family? • MULTIPLE ENDINGS: Will you wait for military evacuation, find the legendary 'Utopia' colony, or perish in the dark? How long can you survive when the apocalypse is right outside your door?
