In August, Geek Native was kindly given a copy of The After to giveaway.
The After is a Savage Worlds Adventure Edition campaign setting from Fainting Goat Games set after the alien invasion has moved on.
In the RPG the aliens came and conquered Earth, the only humans left after the extraterrestrial menace left the planet are people who found out of the way places to hide.
As part of the competition to win a copy of the RPG readers were asked where they would go to survive an alien invasion. Here’s how people voted.
| Where would you go to survive an alien invasion? | Votes |
|---|---|
| Hide in the woods | 20.75% |
| Escape to the countryside | 18.87% |
| I’d keep moving | 24.53% |
| Scavenge carefully in the remains of the city | 11.32% |
| Hide in the hills | 7.55% |
| Deep into the city’s underground | 15.09% |
| Flee to the coast | 1.89% |
There was a clear loser as few people would go to the coast. Would that be different in the case of a zombie outbreak?
The two most likely geographies for people to head to are the open countryside or, even more popular, hiding in the woods.
However, the option of keeping on moving despite the risk of being noticed as you left one safe-ish place for another or the chances of not finding a bolt hole as good as the last one, was the most popular.
