Potentia

About

Potentia is a third person shooter with adventure and puzzle elements set in a post-apocalyptic world. You play as Victor navigating a city frozen mid-celebration after a mysterious energy weapon erases most of humanity. The environment is eerily preserved but deadly, intact buildings hide threats from hostile survivors and environmental hazards. Combat mixes gunplay with stealth while exploration reveals clues about the catastrophe. Puzzles often involve repurposing mundane objects left behind by vanished civilians. The game stands out for its unsettling atmosphere and resource management challenges. Sparse storytelling lets you piece together the event through environmental details and fragmented logs. A small but dedicated player base praises the tension of surviving with limited supplies against unpredictable enemies. The mysterious third companion adds unexpected twists to the survival narrative.

Storyline

On going cold war was about to end. Both sides declared that they would no longer continue pursuing the war effort. That night, everyone was on the streets. People were celebrating the end of the war. The entire city was like a party zone. One of our friends was throwing a party at his home. Me and my wife Anna were going to meet at metro and later that night, join our friends. Eh, what can I say. We were all happy. As it turns out, our happiness wouldn’t last long. And our hopes for peace would vanish with the majority of the people around us. Everything was lost in less than a second. An unknown energy weapon hit the city. No one knows the true extent of the damage caused by it, if it was contained to just one city, country, or the entire planet. Buildings and Infrastructure are left intact. Animals and plants are unharmed. However, people… Many of them just disappeared. Now, no one answers our radio transmissions. No one comes to our aid. Everyone just seems to be vanished. No one is around other than some hostile savages. After the attack so few of us survived and what little amount of people who were still alive and sane wasn’t enough to keep government and law enforcement agencies functioning. Now it is the survival of the fittest. People became little more than savages. Every new day brings new hardships but in the end we will endure, we will survive, whatever the cost. This is the story of Victor, Anna and Victor's new mysterious best friend.
