1Zero Summer is a [[AfterTheEnd post-apocalyptic]] turn-based browser game set in the town of Amarillo. Players control [[QuestForIdentity the Man]] [[NoNameGiven With No Name]] and explore the many mysteries of the setting... possibly with bullets, possibly not. [[MaybeMagicMaybeMundane Strange things]] fly overhead at night, lawless gunmen cause trouble for ordinary folk, society itself is reeling from the [[CrypticBackgroundReference Longest Day]]- and into all of this blunders an [[EasyAmnesia amnesiac]] [[LossOfIdentity individual]] with nowhere else to go.

3The game is designed with replayability in mind, and players are not expected or encouraged to play through all content on the first try- in fact, the game's tutorial specifically tells players they won't be able to do everything, and encourages the player to parcel out their time wisely.
