If you’ve played either Stuffed Fables or Comanauts, the system in Aftermath is very similar in terms of how the story unfolds, albeit simplified in comparison to Comanauts and with none of the dice rolling that occasionally ruined Stuffed Fables. Wearing clothes and armed to the teeth, these rodents occasionally venture from their safe havens on a variety of missions, and it is ahead of one such quest where we pick up the thread.Īftermath is not a true legacy game in the sense that the players will destroy components, but it does provide an episodic campaign that will introduce numbered cards and send players to different areas of the storybook board, some of which will differ depending on your actions and choices. Hints throughout the opening text and on the cards and pages you’ll work through cumulatively suggest that some kind of disease has wiped out us completely, and as a result animals – in particular small rodents – are now the most sentient creatures on the planet.

Specifically, Aftermath takes place following the collapse of humanity. The icing on the cake where Aftermath is concerned is that the game returns to Hawthorne’s love for heroic animals.

If you’re familiar with the previous storybook games from talented designer Jerry Hawthorne, you’ll know exactly what to expect from Aftermath.
