Update 12: Sandbox

Today we're releasing one of our most requested features: Sandbox Mode along with a number of other expansions for Expeditions.

You're all a critical part of making this game great - thanks for your ongoing feedback during Early Access!

We're still hard at work on the After Inc: Scenario Creator, and also starting to plan out the next campaign!

Sandbox Mode

Select "Sandbox Mode" when starting up an Expedition to enter a world of unlimited possibilities and no objectives! It's ideal for when you want to build a great settlement at a relaxed pace or try out different ways of playing the game without the responsibilities of leadership.

This can be played on any Expedition.

Expedition Danger

If you're looking for a greater challenge, we've added a new danger level to Expedition "Very High"... Prepare yourself for Infested Borders and a lot more zombies!

Infested Borders can also appear on lower danger levels as well but with reductions in other danger aspects.

Expedition Goals

Expedition Goals have been expanded to give more variety and now include single goals like maximising your population.

Expedition Modifiers

We've added six new modifiers, including infested borders, zombie surprise attacks and improved Fighter healing.

Expedition Maps

We've added four new map layouts in the Expedition rotation! Keep your eyes peeled for them.
