About

The Descendant is an indie adventure and casual title developed by Gaming Corps AB and published by Microids Indie and Microids. Released on March 24, 2016, this single-player game unfolds as a five-part episodic series where the end of the world marks only the beginning of new challenges. The narrative follows humanity's survival after climate change and a man-made extinction event left only thousands of descendants cryogenically suspended in underground bunkers called Arks. Centuries later, the world has recovered from a nuclear holocaust, yet most Arks have reopened except for Ark-01. The story spans two timelines, featuring Mia as a janitor responsible for keeping the precious descendants alive within Ark-01 despite frequent facility failures. In the present timeline, players take on the role of Donnie, an investigator working to rescue surviving descendants who are trapped in the remaining bunker. The main story requires about six hours to complete, while including extras extends playtime to seven hours. Players seeking a full experience can expect to spend approximately ten hours to finish all content available in the game.Read more
