The Voyagers of Tomorrow - Game Script Find a New Planet for the Human Race


Background

The year is 2515. The Earth is dying.

There are 700 thousand people left on Earth after The Age of Disasters- in the last three hundred years humanity has been suffering from massive natural disasters. The icebergs have melted completely, creating enormous floods all over the globe, which erased most of the coast line cities. Earthquakes have ruined many other populated zones. These events caused massive migration to Afrasia- the last continent that has left on the surface. As a result of over population in Afrasia, a plague wiped out more than 80% of the citizens.

We are the survivors. For years humanity has been trying to redeem itself and fix the damage, but all the attempts have failed. According to our finest specialists, we have 5-10 years before complete annihilation.

The only hope for the future is to seek another planet.

Our best engineers have created a time-space travelling portal in order to explore suitable planets in different galaxies. The Afrasian Supreme Authority (A.S.A.) has decided to send several teams of specialists to different planets. Each team needs to explore the planet and report A.S.A.
