Games about post-apocalypse

Many games tell an alternative history of our world, in which a nuclear war or some other massive deadly incident occurred: it was because of it that fields and forests were replaced by lifeless deserts, and the planet’s population fell hundreds of times. In such a world, food and equipment become valuable resources, which also slowly tend to zero. It is because of this that the survivors band together to face adversity, bandits and other problems.

Usually in games about post-apocalypse there are elements of survival, crafting and leveling, but there are exceptions. This list contains all the games that tell about survival in a post-apocalyptic environment, regardless of the genre and year of release.
