Storyline

The disastrous nuclear and biological war is over, the lucky few - Muscovites and guests of the capital - have found salvation in the subway, which has spread a web of its tunnels, stations and technical premises under the now dead city. Each surviving station turned first into a temporary shelter, and then into a new home for those who found themselves on it... or was born. Have people learned a lesson from what happened? Of course not. Soon, the unified metro management system broke up into separate quasi-states, which immediately began to fight among themselves for every scrap of living space or piece of food - war never changes, and the world of the apocalypse is no exception. Meanwhile, on the radioactive wasteland that most of the planet's surface had turned into, something hitherto unknown was emerging... Take on the role of Arseny Skadov, the young head of the security service of the government bunker, in which the pre-war order has been preserved. In the place where you were born and grew up, an emergency occurred: a dangerous virus that was mistakenly obtained in ambitious research got into the bunker's life support system, and a group of scientists sent to the civilian subway for the missing components for the vaccine did not return!
