A red dash is spotted in the night sky above a rotting and decaying Earth. The city of Savannah, once a prospering megapolis, has now been ruined and abandoned for hundreds of years. Small bands of scavengers dwell among the remains, and the vast majority of North America has become an unforgiving wasteland, populated by crazed desert tribes desperate to fulfill the mad whims of their made-up deities. Those least affected by the destruction quickly succumb to crime and corruption in absence of a stable government. In want of something greater than their broken lives, these individuals follow the signal from the sky and search for the crash. What lies behind this mysterious incident? Is it hope? Redemption? Aliens?
Not even the maddest of Maxes could save these fools.

Over the course of multiple days, players can participate in faction-led missions, buy class upgrades with in-game currency, and unearth the secrets of the wasteland in a heavily detailed ARG.
