How It Begins
It has been decades since an apocalyptic world war, with the remaining humans trying to rebuild civilization. An old prophecy says that, somewhere on an island on the Pacific Ocean, there lies hidden a missile called "Pandora's Box", which will soon launch in order to destroy the remnants of humanity. You arrived onto the island in a helicopter in order to destroy this doomsday device, but you have been shot down by an automatic gun and barely managed to jump out on a parachute. You are now in an empty meadow. There is nothing in your inventory.
The game in total consists of 1600 locations, the vast majority of which are featureless and empty.
