Afore is a strategy game that puts the player in the shoes of an ancestral spirit who helps settlers build up a civilization from the rumbles of the old world. The spirit has to help the settlers in prioritizing things to make sure that the population is being fed, water being gathered and new houses being built.
Every now and then the population will have to face natures wrath and the spirit needs to gather all the settlers inside of the houses to survive.
During the catastrophy the settlers take shelter and uses the stockpile of food and water that has been stored in the houses. People will perish if there is not enough food or water.
When the weather calms down the settlers goes outside again. They have all aged, kids have become adults, adults have become elders and the elders have perished. There has also been an increase of new children, making the population bigger then before.
