Ephemeral Rift Podcast #41 – Post-Apocalyptic Fiction
While this podcast isn’t usually about the post-apocalyptic genre, this 41st episode focuses entirely on our favorite topic. The host opens with a brief discussion of how he got into the topic while expanding into his favorite books, comics, movies, and more.
Lost Scavenger – Post Apocalyptic Survival RPG
I have a double feature from SplatterCat this week because, let’s face it, he is the king of post-apocalyptic indie game videos. This first one is Lost Scavenger, a game about surviving an apocalypse in an alternate universe ruled by THE MIST.
Desolation Tycoon – Sandbox Post Apocalyptic Merchant Sim
And here’s out second SplatterCat game video featuring Desolation Tycoon. This game looks to be more like a travel and trade game based in a “demon-haunted post-apocalypse.” One of my favorite features of this game is how the game world changes and evolves even when you’re not offline, not playing.
Asteroid Impact Survival Trailer – New Post-apocalyptic Crafting Game
Another post-apocalyptic game (sorry non-gamers) that looks to combine the best elements of a first-person shooter, a farming sim, a puzzle game, and a survival game. Can’t wait to get my hands on this one!
THOSE WHO LIVED – Post apocalyptic short film
This short film is about a man who is surviving the apocalypse alone… well, until he’s not. While there are a billion of these “one lone survivor against it all” short films on YouTube, this one is very well-shot and acted.
Horizon Forbidden West Cinematic Story Trailer (4K)
Horizon Zero Dawn’s upcoming sequel, Horizon Forbidden West, dropped a new trailer this week and I can’t say enough great things about it. This is one of our most highly anticipated games of this year and this trailer makes us more anxious to play!

Ruin Nation is an upcoming post-apocalyptic tabletop RPG from Toren Atkinson. You can check out a free preview of the game at his website, and he’s a regular in our Discord, so you can discuss the game there if you’re interested in learning more.
