Storyline
In RAD, the fate of the world depends on you, your trusty bat, and whatever strange new abilities you gain as the world around you ravages your body — twisting and mutating you into something far less than human, but far more powerful. Playing as a teenage protagonist, it is here where you must venture into the Fallow — an ever-changing, radioactive wasteland filled with unknown and unspeakable creatures in the hopes you will find the solution to heal the world, and transform the cracked, barren landscape into a lush source of new life.Read more
