Fallout fans might be interested in a game I've been building. (see my bio if curious.)

Fallout, Idiocracy, HHGG and The Princess Bride are all heavy inspirations and influences on both its style and world design.

Turn-based?

Well...sort-of. it's definitely not realtime ;)

Took a look and it seems like it's text-based IF like Infocom games.

close!

its a text-and-terminal style UX at moment. so we have some Infocom/IF like-modes, but also have true Rogue-like-looking UI elements where those fit. (I should revise the project page to make clear. But Itch.io forced me to pick a category)

I want the best of both.
