Scout: An Apocalypse Story

I kinda sad there are still people discovering and comenting on this story and getting on the waiting room with everyone else, and still this side has no other IF good like this one

I played this back when the pandemic was happening. The plot and characters are really charming and it's an interesting take on the dystopian genre. I hope this game could be completed one day and I send my pleasantries to the author. Please take care and I hope everything is okay on your end.

been here since 2021(Just didnt have an account) and ive been revistiting every so often, Hope this could be finished one day, but if that day never comes its fine!

 hope you're doing good <3333

24 December 2024, a Date that will pass alone. But I feel, that one moment, when I first got to know about this adventure, will never pass. It is always here, I am here, we all are here. But what I am missing is you our dear. Please come back.

Here since 2020. This has my heart, like an old friend who disappeared without trace. Bittersweet to reread every year. Masterful work, always been, Anya, hopefully, you are well. Just to know that would be great relief, whether Scout ever continues or not.

Everyone visits this game even if it's probably never going to update (I hope it will tho) because it's so good that it deserves more attention. And we will give it the attention it deserves! 

this is insane omg

OLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII 😭

Its almost 2025 yall are dedicated (also me who has been here for 2 years)

Good

So good

So freaking good

Wow.

Was looking through my feed notifications and Scout popped up. I thought it was an update, but it was just a review from someone I followed. I got so sad again, but I'm also so happy that people are still showing love for this WIP.  I've commented this before, but this is the IF that got me into reading IFs... It's bittersweet to come back every few months to check. I'm sad that we may never see anymore updates, but I am filled with joy by this community. I love all of my fellow Scouts! ❤️ 

I just spent an hour and a half reading your story. I love how naturally the story flows, and how all of the choices are tactfully placed and timed. I'm not finishing it tonight, but I'm absolutely blown away by what I've seen so far. Thank you.

Three and a bit years later, the IF community is still a little bleaker without Anya :( 

I hope she's thriving out there.

I love that people still actively come here to comment. Because of this, a long time ago, I tried this game and was blown away. It was my lead into the world of interactive fiction and has inspired me and opened up my own way to tell stories in this kind of format, since I've never been gifted to do things in a visual novel method regarding art and assets. So thank you Scout, for being so special to so many people. Maybe one day, it will return and we can all rejoice but I dearly hope the writer knows how impactful they are! 

I keep coming back to this story hoping for an update, and I'm glad I'm not alone in that. I miss my boy Oliver :,)

Thank you, times a million, Anya.

I hope you're doing well, wherever you might be.

GUYS! GUYS!! GUYS!!!

"Scout will not be unfinished, but it will be paused. "

Do not lose hope gang, one day she will return and feed us all. Even if it takes 10 years, everything will be alright. We'll get our happy ending! Do.Not.Lose.Hope.

Another tourist here to leave a written cairn on one of the best IF's i've read.

in a way, the fact this will most likely never be finished gives it this sort of greatness, any update could steer either way so for now we're left in this limbo where it will always be perfect, and never be.

Hopefully the creator comes back to it, whether to announce its dead or resume updating, as i love everything about it; the settings, characters, motives, how you can't entirely trust either side. It is rather amazing.

May the deserts treat all of us well.

Well..I just felt really disappointed when I looked at the last update;-;

just played this, insanely good and well-written! I really hope you will continue it but no pressure, from what I've seen it's been a good while since you left, i really hope chapter 5 will see the light of day, much love!!<3

MASTERPIECE!  

It's a terrific story and very well written.  Although not finished,  the existing content is relatively rich. She is really good at pacing the story, rendering the atmosphere and emotions. When MC flirts with ROs, I can't control my squealing outside of the screen. ( Unfortunately, no sexual content at present, I can do anything for that!!!)

omfg i luv this so muchhhhhhhh!!!!!!! take ur time, hope ur doing great!!!!!xoxo

If you're new to this game, please don't feel discouraged to play this game due to the update (2021). It is an extremely well written interactive fiction that is worth playing.  I hope you fall in love with this as much as we all have! It's been 3-4 years and Anya still has people coming back... that's got to say something about their writing!  Please check it out and at your own risk of a heartbreak worth having lol. 

Anya deserves their flowers and may they be showered with all the flowers in the world. Some may think i'm exaggerating but I am not 😭. Trust me.  

Please also consider that life happens and realistically Anya does have to cater to their personal life first. Life does take a lot of our time away and I hope we all understand that. 

Country roaaads, take me hoooome...

im gonna remember everyone in these comments for life..hows it going all ! ^_^

Peak

hope you're ok <3

dear Anya, thank you for writing this story and I hope you're doing well<3 I can't believe it's already been three years... every so often, I come back to just look at this page and mourn this game and think about the joy it still brings. it's heartwarming to see so many others do the same :)

I was wondering if the story would be continue to be written or not:( 'cause it's so good but it was way long ago since the last update

can you give a physical description written somewhere? I am enjoying your game.... thanks
