comment
NEO Scavenger is a roguelike turn-based survival simulation video game with some role-playing and adventure game elements. The player takes control of Philip Kindred, a man with no memory who wakes up in a Cryogenic Lab to an apocalyptic Michigan. He sets out to explore the world, and uncover of his forgotten past. But first, he has to stay alive, since everything around can and will kill him.Developed by Blue Bottle Games, NEO Scavenger is inspired by various old-school games, particularly tabletop role-playing games including Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, Rifts, and Shadowrun.A free demo as well as the current version can be found at the developer website, on GOG, or on Steam. A spaceship sim game set in the same universe, Ostranauts, is in development.

Boulder Bludgeon: Though the reach is nothing to write about, rocks are surprisingly effective as melee weapons, and can be found literally anywhere.

I Am a Humanitarian: It is possible to cut up human corpses and eat the meat. If it is done repeatedly, the character becomes afflicted with the Windigo curse and has to eat human meat everyday. Also, Zom Zom's tasty "barbecue" is made from this, as Philip finds out when he's about to be roasted.

Early Game Hell
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_1527d90d
comment
Early Game Hell: The first few turns of the game will put you in a desperate struggle to find shoes and clothing to increase your movement and avoid hypothermia. Until you find a vaguely useful weapon, any and all opponents can swat you like a fly. Following that, you will then need a pack to carry stuff and tools (crowbars, bottles, and lighters being some of the most important ones) before you're safe and ready for the rest of the game.

Unstable Equilibrium: The key to not dying in five minutes. Take as few risks as possible, run from fights, nurse your wounds, and soon the dogs and dog-men will seek out easier meat; you'll start stumbling over the corpses of your rival survivors, surrounded by their scavenged loot. The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Easy-Mode Mockery: With the Electrician and Mechanic Skills you can repair the Cryo Facility's lighting and HVAC, turning it into the single most luxurious campsite on the map. However, their use throughout the rest of the world is negligible, so you burned four of your fifteen skill points just to make the early game easier. Though once you reach the DMC, you can use them to craft a Gauss Rifle.

Crapsack World
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_21d70919
comment
Crapsack World: The game's setting. Cities and towns are abandoned and reduced to ruins. Bandits and looters run rampant. People turn against each other for a good pair of shoes. Add in an enclave of religious nuts that revels in torturing and killing people. Although Detroit Megacity is safe compared to the outside world, they have restrictions on newcomers that resulted in slums forming around its walls. And that's not even the worst of it. Even the pre-apocalypse isn't doing well, which was shown in newspapers that were published during that time. Examples includes Mega-Corp ran by Corrupt Corporate Executive, Chinese super soldier overthrowing the government, open-air drug market, and soda made entirely out of corn syrup. Of special note to the Corrupt Corporate Executive activities, one news article found in-game reveals that the Agrasanto Corporation lobbied and managed to dismantle the otherwise Crazy-Prepared Svalbard Seed Vault (Which in real life preserves and shields various specimens of seeds from plants to grow in the event of famine or a event that would have otherwise driven said crop to extinction.), claiming that the seeds would contaminate their own genetically modified versions of the same seeds. For sure, this would complicate the growing of crops, and seeing how the 'modified' crops had to be chemically burned to create the Black Swamp, one can see how that did nothing but harm humanity's chances at survival.

Bandit Mook: NPCs can steal stuff while the player character is sleeping. Of course, if you can kill them, you can get all your items back. Looters specialize in this, as they're very bad in combat and avoid it, but tend to have the Athletic skill, making it hard to catch up to them

 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_33bcd2af
comment
Shoplift and Die: The Red Gnome Diner is the only place in Michigan that serves genuine, sanitary, high-quality, pre-apocalypse food. Eating there doesn't come without a high price though: The meals all have a hefty price tag ($20.00, $24.50, $32.50) and tips are mandatory (+15% of the selected meal's price). In previous versions, not paying or tipping twice resulted in the staff killing you by throwing you out of the restaurant and in front of a speeding car. Now, not tipping enough times simply results in the staff refusing to serve you, while dine and dashing results in the Nain Rouge curse you with hallucinations and illnesses.

comment
Lethal Chef: The chef at the "Last Chance" Canteen. Eating either the Seagull Wings or Meat Stew has a chance of making the player sick, as the meat comes from non-sanitary sources (the meat in the meat stew is left a mystery). His other meals, while safe to eat, are described as being tasteless at best. Subverted by the Canteen Truck within the DMC. Although the owner openly admits they serve rat meat, their meat is otherwise safe to eat. The chef also appears quite skilled, as Philip notes the meat tastes genuine and complements the served vegetables, making a tasty and filling meal.

Boring, but Practical
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6
comment
Boring, but Practical: Everywhere. When you get hurt or sick, you need medical attention. You can find antibiotics, prescription painkillers, and even nanite-based medical treatments... or you can just steep some tree bark in water and drink the resulting "tannin tea". Even better, you can use it to sterilize wounds. You should save some pills and nanites for the inevitable mauling, but 90% of the time you can recover with nothing but tea and a night's rest under a tarp shelter. The single most useful object you can find is a crowbar. Great for looting buildings, and while it's not the best melee weapon, it's one of the most durable; the broad spear will break after a few dozen attacks, but it takes few hundred to break a crowbar. On top of that, you can add a twine strap and wear it in a shoulder slot, freeing up your hands. Scavenging is always easier with a source of light. You can spend weeks finding flashlights, AA batteries, and somehow extracting the electrical charge from any other kind of batteries to keep the AAs charged — and a fully charged flashlight has only eighty charges, and you will waste them by forgetting to turn it off after using it. Or you can use a lighter, which is also good for starting campfires, takes up a third of the space, and only loses about 1% of its durability per use; a fully functional lighter can be used one hundred times. You can extend its lifespan even further by using it to light torches (though torches do eat into inventory space). While Flashlights are considered unreliable in the beginning, careful use of them can make the game much easier. They can be refilled rather easily once you get to Detroit, and a laptop battery can hold 240 charges each, 240 hours worth of light. Careful use of these tools can make exploring much easier. Melee attacks in general, since ranged weapons require some finesse to use, not to mention the ammunition problem. Bonus; the best melee weapon in the game — the broad spear — is just a tree branch with a shard tied to it with string or just paper. You can craft one as soon as you leave the cryo facility. If the player is fond of range weapons, the cheapest option they have is the sling. Crafted from some strings and some rags, it makes use of the stones and pebbles that are virtually everywhere. Bows and arrows are dirt-simple to craft; the bow is just a branch whittled with any sharp tool with medium thread for the bowstring, the arrows are just branches with foil or paper for fletching and glass shards tied on short thread. The arrows are even good for multiple uses. The travois. Just twelve units of medium thread and a bunch of branches, and you get a 16x10 container... and any containers on it do not decay. This pretty much justifies choosing the otherwise-worthless Mechanic skill. Bonus; when its condition approaches zero, you can break it up and re-craft it to return it to perfect condition.

Endless Game: It is possible to survive in the game forever, as food and supply can respawn in the woods, and they can be bartered for. Of course, if you take too long/open up too much of the map for the game to store, you could trigger a Game-Breaking Bug that resets all location data and makes many sites you've already visited impossible to enter.

Hyperactive Metabolism: The Metabolism Flaw will make your character go hungry and thirsty more often, straining you to find and carry more food and water than usual. On the other hand it accelerates your recovery, allowing your wounds to heal quicker.

Agony Beam: The ADS (Short for Active Denial System) defenses at Camp Grayling, which is basically a heat ray. It comes in two forms, first by strategically placed microwave emitters and turrets that forms a invisible wall surrounding the interior of the base, frying anyone who made it past the fence. They also appear mounted on robotic spiders, that will chase down and attempt to fry Philip to death. Each actions that involves taking ADS exposure expresses in great detail the pain your character suffers.

Bragging Rights Reward
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_55e5b37c
comment
Bragging Rights Reward: The best armor and weapons in the game can only be acquired by attacking DMC personnel - DMC guards in general, and crafting the Gauss Rifle requires destroying multiple DMC Drones (heavily armored, flying robots that fire armor piercing shots), which are significantly harder to kill than any other enemy in the game. It's really not worth the effort since the DMC never initiates any kind of hostility towards Phillip throughout the game, and pissing the DMC off cuts him off from all the stores save the trading post at the Magical Native American ATN Enclave.

When you get hurt or sick, you need medical attention. You can find antibiotics, prescription painkillers, and even nanite-based medical treatments... or you can just steep some tree bark in water and drink the resulting "tannin tea". Even better, you can use it to sterilize wounds. You should save some pills and nanites for the inevitable mauling, but 90% of the time you can recover with nothing but tea and a night's rest under a tarp shelter.

Colonized Solar System: Some time before or during Philip's cryosleep, humans have successfully gone to Jupiter and established colonies on its moons. Unfortunately, things there seem to have taken a turn for the worse just like on Earth. One newspaper article describes rebellious militias in the Galilean Confederacy coming to prominence and fighting each other in space and on the surface of Jupiter's colonized moons. The colonists have suffered likewise from the brutal conflict and oppression. Another newspaper article details the financial plight of Troy-Jupiter Group, an off-world mining company that has lost 1.2 billion in revenue due to a month-long worker's strike. The spinoff game Ostranauts will be dealing with these groups.

Too Awesome to Use
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_7d561d58
comment
Too Awesome to Use: After the Early Game Hell, you're constantly warring between this and Boring, but Practical. Loads of scavenged loot can easily make hash out of life-threatening situations... if you haven't used them earlier or sold them at a market to buy a dozen BbPs. Whiskey. Nothing better for sterilizing wounds. However, it's also worth twenty bucks per unit and can be kept in a stack of twelve; hauling a full container of it to the ATN Enclave or the DMC Junk Market means you just paid for new clothes and shoes. Tannin tea works just fine as an antiseptic, and is craftable. Medicine, medicine, medicine. Pills stack ten, and only takes up a single inventory space. A single dose of antibiotics will cure you of anything except the Blue Rot... but if you're moderately healthy, so will drinking some tannin tea and a good night's rest in a sleeping bag. At fifty bucks a pill, a stack costs the same as a hunting rifle. But if your immune system's in the red, nothing else can save you. Painkillers. OTC stuff is good, prescription is better... but prescription stuff costs thirty bucks a pill while the OTC is only five. Use in moderation. Pass out from agony and get eaten. Sleeping pills. Double the effects of a night's sleep... for twenty bucks a pop. Just remember you can die of overexertion. Nanorobot medical kits. Players have used these to recover from wounds on every body part overnight... or to be more precise, they've expired from wounds on every body part because they try to make do with tannin tea and rags rather than use a two-hundred and fifty dollar nanorobot charge. Any and all firearms. They have great range and do respectable damage. However, at fifty bucks a shot , the only loot more valuable than bullets are antibiotics; they stack five, but that's more than a full bottle of whiskey. Hell, even the Merga Wraith can be killed with a bow and arrow — handmade ones. The only enemies worth that kind of expense are the DMC Drones, which are only hostile if you're going for the Bragging Rights Reward. They're actually not even worth salvaging for cash because they'll only fit in vehicles and otherwise have to be carried either by hand or with a strap... and even one in perfect condition(which you will never find in the field) is only five hundred bucks to its 51 inventory spaces.

Brutal Brawl: Combat often goes like this, with fights typically resulting in either both participants receiving wounds all over their body, or with the loser being knocked down, kicked into unconsciousness, and having their lungs/skull caved in.

Death or Glory Attack

comment
Death or Glory Attack: Tackling an enemy will always make you prone, but has the chance to also knock down the enemy, and possibly get them recovering. Thus, tackling may end with either you or the enemy getting kicked to death, and it's up to random chance as to who gets this treatment.

Shotguns Are Just Better: Both of the available shotguns do the highest damage possible of all weapons available. The reduced range, compared to the rifles, isn't much of an issue, as most enemies tend to charge at you, and few are armed with rifles.

comment
Big Bad: The Merga, a cosmic entity of sorts that discovered the "mass belief become reality" rule and exploited this to increase their own power, becoming powerful enough to create it's own dimension and summon nearly-indestructible wraiths to serve as agents. Philip, while investigating The Merga for the New Earth Ostracon wiki, got too close to the truth, prompting The Merga to summon a Wraith after him. This forces Philip to erase his own memories and go into hiding at the Gyro facility to shake off their tail. However, the Wraith found him and forced him out of hibernation, hoping he gets eaten by a passing dogman. As this fails, the Wraith places additional traps around Michigan, including paying Hatter to send Philip to retrieve a urn, hoping he gets strangled in the process.

Luck-Based Mission: The Early Game Hell. Can't scavenge a weapon before the feral dogs show up? You're dogfood. Can't find a damn metal container(a tin can will do) fast, so you can make tannin tea to treat the dysentery you picked up before you could boil water? You shit yourself to death. Can't find shoes? You'll starve to death limping between scavenge sites on blistered feet. Hell, even if you do manage to get food, water, clothing, shoes and a weapon, a damn dog getting a good hit in before you build a stock of clean rags and tannin tea to disinfect and bind wounds means you will bleed to death or die of infections.

Interface Spoiler: When two drops of unidentified water refuse to stack on each other, it means that one is infected water and the other is sterilized water. Given the unforgiving and treacherous nature of this game, it's better to be safe than sorry by boiling them or using a digital water tester. The same applies to mushrooms and red berries but you're always better off with the botany skill rather than taking a chance with your health and life.

Mega City: The appropriately named Detroit Megacity, the last gasp of technological civilization in Michigan. The exact size of the city is not revealed. However, the part of the city seen on the map occupy roughly 20 hexes, and the slum around it also occupies around 20 hexes. Considering each hex is equivalent to 1 square kilometer, one can only imagine the size of the whole city.

Even the pre-apocalypse isn't doing well, which was shown in newspapers that were published during that time. Examples includes Mega-Corp ran by Corrupt Corporate Executive, Chinese super soldier overthrowing the government, open-air drug market, and soda made entirely out of corn syrup. Of special note to the Corrupt Corporate Executive activities, one news article found in-game reveals that the Agrasanto Corporation lobbied and managed to dismantle the otherwise Crazy-Prepared Svalbard Seed Vault (Which in real life preserves and shields various specimens of seeds from plants to grow in the event of famine or a event that would have otherwise driven said crop to extinction.), claiming that the seeds would contaminate their own genetically modified versions of the same seeds. For sure, this would complicate the growing of crops, and seeing how the 'modified' crops had to be chemically burned to create the Black Swamp, one can see how that did nothing but harm humanity's chances at survival.

 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_b58b4e3c
comment
Too Dumb to Live: The AI behaviors in this game have a tendency to be erratic which causes NPC scavengers to die mostly from non-combat causes (malnutrition, dehydration, hypothermia, poisoning, improper or lack of first-aid). Scavengers and DMC Guards will venture into the Great Black Swamp and slowly, but eventually, die of Defoliant Exposure. It's very rare but possible to encounter a wanderer with no clothes whatsoever.

Acceptable Breaks from Reality
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_b6e1d40b
comment
Scavenging is always easier with a source of light. You can spend weeks finding flashlights, AA batteries, and somehow extracting the electrical charge from any other kind of batteries to keep the AAs charged — and a fully charged flashlight has only eighty charges, and you will waste them by forgetting to turn it off after using it. Or you can use a lighter, which is also good for starting campfires, takes up a third of the space, and only loses about 1% of its durability per use; a fully functional lighter can be used one hundred times. You can extend its lifespan even further by using it to light torches (though torches do eat into inventory space).

Boom, Headshot!: A hit to the head can stun the enemy for a turn, and cause a concussion that reduces their combat effectiveness. Too much damage to the head will also cause the character to die, and the only head protection available, unlike the chest, is a tactical helmet that can only be obtained by fighting DMC guards.

Fog of War: Covers the places that the player character cannot see. In normal condition, the player can see up to 4 hexes (4 kilometers) on an open plain.

Press Start to Game Over
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_e4c91c25
comment
Press Start to Game Over: If you fail to use a skill (perhaps as part of a Self-Imposed Challenge to not start with any) at the starting event, a dogman will appear at the cryo facility. Fail to escape it (especially if you're caught in a forest or a town), and you may get torn apart before even getting your bearings. Result: A weapon with the same stopping power as the hunting rifle you may have destroyed to make it, but with the range of the shotgun you may have destroyed to make it — which had more stopping power.

comment
Defensive Feint Trap: The lure combat move for those with the Trapping skill is implied to be this, as it causes your character to step back while performing it.

Swamps Are Evil
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_eabb8130
comment
Swamps Are Evil: The Great Black Swamp was created out of a desperate government operation to stop Genetically-Modified Crops that were out of control and rampaging through the Midwest region. It is the origin of the toxic black mold and the water from the swamp is immune to boiling and purification pills, making it absolutely useless and unsafe for drinking.

You Get What You Pay For
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_ebec0a20
comment
You Get What You Pay For: When you're looking for footwear at the start of the game, you may find flip-flops and rag shoes in your scavenging efforts. Be sure to note their trade value is only a few bucks each, because both are so bad that you're better off being barefoot for a bit longer: flip-flops have a high chance of falling off every time you end your turn and rag shoes will give you blisters if they're worn for too long.

The Illuminati
 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_ed61457c
comment
The Illuminati: Inserting Hatter's bug into the Camp Grayling mainframe causes the Illuminati logo to appear on screen, advising the player to run before the base self-destructs. Their motives are unclear, although its likely they either wanted to access the PRISM's surveillance network or to destroy it.

Crazy Survivalist: One of the game routes is to become one of these. Stock up purified water, cured meat and non-perishable food, gather some good clothes and shoes. Prepare spare weapons and ammunition. Then make several other camps and keep stocking up.

Hit Points: Averted. The character's condition is represented by Blood Supply, Immune System and Pain Tolerance bar. Having any of those too low can lead to character death.

Suicidal Overconfidence: Averted. It is possible to scare off enemies by looking tough and well armed. Also, some enemies with strong gear might run away when they wish to avoid a fight.

 Neo Scavenger (Video Game) / int_fcd993bd
comment
Video Game Cruelty Punishment: NEVER try to sell human meat in the Junk Market at the Detroit Mega City Sprawl. You will be hated by the locales, regardless of whether or not you were aware of the true origins of the meat, and sternly warned not to do it again. Doing it a second time will get you lynched to death. Attempting to sell it at the ATN's store will result in a permanent exile.

comment
Cutscene Power to the Max: ....Yet the Dogman encountered upon the start of a new game can be punched to the death with minimal damage if you select Melee or Strong to fight it (using both prevents any injuries). Normally, Dogman act as Demonic Spiders, who are very difficult to kill even with good weapons, much less unarmed.

Everything Trying to Kill You: Here's an inexhaustive list Human enemies: Looter, Bad Mutha, Blue Frog cult members, and everyone you pick a fight with. Non-human enemies: Dogman, Wild Dogs, Melon Head, etc Injuries: A bruise is okay, but a cut can lead to blood loss. Better bandage it. Oh, is that a dirty piece of rag? Be careful, or you might get an infection. Hunger and Thirst: Yep, better eat and drink. However, avoid eating raw meat or drinking unboiled water. You might get cholera or gastroenteritis. Unidentified mushrooms or berries can poison you. Lack of Sleep: You might black out in the middle of nowhere (even in the middle of combat) and get looted or killed. Hypothermia or Hyperthermia: Better watch what you wear. Airborne diseases: Be careful while scavenging, or you might inhale some toxic black mold.
