Lone Survivor

What is Lone Survivor?

The player navigates a bleak, monochrome world, scavenging for supplies and making choices that impact the narrative in Lone Survivor, a 2D side-scrolling survival horror adventure game. Developed by indie creator Jasper Byrne, the title challenges players to survive in a deserted, post-apocalyptic city, where the line between reality and delusion blurs. Resourcefulness and decision-making are crucial as the protagonist seeks to escape the nightmarish environment, with the story unfolding through environmental storytelling and dialogue choices that shape the outcome. Initially released for Windows and macOS in 2012, Lone Survivor has since been expanded and ported to various platforms, including PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4, and Wii U
