The Great Dust Bowl

Two centuries have passed since nuclear fire forever altered the ecosystem of the midwest. The Great Dust Bowl now dominates the region, a shifting hellscape that has given birth to some of the most brutal creatures and cultures ever before seen in the wasteland. A greedy syndicate of ghouls, vicious raider tribes, and endless hordes of mutants rule the surface. Left unchecked by the larger factions that would typically serve as their nemeses, they utilize pre-war automobiles to exert their influence and expand beyond what is usually possible elsewhere.

The last bastion of human civilization clings to hope aboard the The Vault Crawler, a mobile platform designed by Vault Tec to terraform distant planets. Doomed to chase the habitable zone behind the swirling sands, the denizens must excavate salvage twenty four hours a day to remain operational. Although an impressive work of engineering, the Crawler was never fully completed and lacks one final component needed to fulfill its intended purpose - a Garden of Eden Creation Kit. In a race against time, the dwellers must find a way to solve their problems before their technology fails and they become just another relic buried underneath the radioactive dust.
