When we talk about post-apocalyptic settings, we often think of the wasteland. Desolation, destruction, and desperation punctuate games set after global cataclysm.

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is different. Set in the English countryside in a small village, The Chinese Room has created a haunting, lovely exploration experience.

The Chinese Room says it wants to create emotional moments, but will leave discovery up to the player. The story can be uncovered in any order, and there are a number of "passive events" that recreate memories or conversations from before the event.

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is coming to PlayStation 4 in Summer 2015. For more, check out a past preview.
