Read the opening

Fourteen months have passed since the Collapse, and you still count time in days since the last thing you ate that didn't come from a can. Your group — six people, counting the two kids — has spent three weeks sheltering in the ruins of an old industrial warehouse, and supplies are running out much faster than anyone wants to admit out loud.

This morning a decision has to be made, and everyone in the group is waiting for you to make it. With six mouths and what's left on the shelves, you have four days of food. There are only hands enough for one of these three things. What do you spend today on?

This is the beginning of the story. Continue in the interactive player to make your first choice.
