About
Apocalypse Run! is an RPG that parodies the edutainment titles of the 1980s. When your party of four's vacation is cut short by the Apocalypse and Motorlord Dysentery starts hunting you for sport, all your hopes rest on three scientists who might just be able to reverse the Apocalypse and set things right.

A note on translations:
You might have noticed that the game lists interface translations for German, French, Spanish; but not subtitles. The game already has support for translations, but because it dynamically generates quests and the dialog along with them, it might be difficult for translators to figure out how to write them. I'm working on making this easy, and hopefully more languages will be added.Scores by platform
