Orphan Age

About

Orphan Age is a dystopian life simulator that flips the usual war story script. You take on the role of kids struggling to survive in a world ravaged by conflict, managing basic needs like food, shelter, and safety while building a makeshift community. Gameplay mixes survival mechanics with strategic planning as you balance daily chores, resource gathering, and social dynamics. Each choice affects your group's stability, with no clear right answers. The game stands out for its unflinching focus on moral ambiguity and the emotional weight of parenting in chaos. Players report that the stark, minimalist art style and tense decision trees create a haunting atmosphere. Early access feedback highlights its ability to challenge assumptions about who holds power in wartime. With 83% of 1.2K user reviews calling it "thought-provoking," it's a stark take on resilience through a child's eyes.
