The last cylinder
80 kilometers of spinning metal rock adrift in space, far, far into the future - humanity's final outpost.
Inside this massive space habitat, centuries of famine, disease, war have eroded our once-mighty civilization into a medieval post-apocalyptic society and stripped away our technological heights.
You enter this world with randomly assigned attributes - strength, stamina, and agility. Your mission is clear: traverse the cylinder's expanse to enhance these traits and stay alive at all costs. Born with advantages or flaws beyond your control, you must adapt to survive.
Most don't make it past several hours, but hopefully you can and bring change to our broken world.
