Short description

Apocalypse is Not the End, It's Your Beginning. Become the supreme leader of a civilization in an apocalyptic world. Every collapse fuels the rise of a new era—your choices will forge a legacy across four monumental epochs.

About this game

Apocalypse is Not the End—It's Your Beginning. Become the supreme leader of a civilization in an apocalyptic world ravaged by extreme weather. Guide your people through an eternal cycle of destruction and rebirth, fighting to preserve the ember of survival. Every collapse fuels the rise of a new era—your choices will forge a legacy across four monumental epochs. DEFY A MERCILESS WORLD Face lethal, unpredictable climates: today’s calm may birth tomorrow’s cataclysm. Balance razor-thin resources between exploration, expansion, and survival. Make critical decisions to endure nature’s fury. EVOLVE THROUGH THE CYCLE Rise from ashes: every fall becomes a stepping stone to rebirth. Lead your civilization across four distinct eras—from primal struggle to cosmic ambition. Rewrite history with each rebirth; your choices shape civilization’s path. BUILD YOUR LAST BASTION Gather resources, expand population, advance technological development. As your civilization progresses, you will continuously expand city scale, meticulously plan urban layouts, adapt to extreme environments, and select capable administrators, pushing boundaries from scorched earth to the planet's core and even orbital colonies. Your cities stand as the final bastions safeguarding the survival of civilization. SHAPE YOUR SOCIETY’S FATE Enact vital policies, choosing between desperate survival and audacious progress. In moments of crisis, make the unthinkable choice—and bear its weight. Whether prioritizing rations or research—your decree is final, etched into civilization’s memory. UNCOVER LOST LEGACIES Explore ruins of fallen societies; salvage their wisdom and warnings. Establish outposts in hostile zones to harness scarce resources. Reach beyond your ravaged world—discover secrets and salvage across the star system. YOUR CHOICE HOLDS THE KEY Will your civilization embrace extinction’s shadow or clutch at rebirth’s hope? Will you cling to the ashes—or grasp the stars? Each cycle, every defining decision, writes your civilization’s ultimate destiny. Find your answer—against all odds.

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Oct 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $8.99
  • Highest observed: $8.99

Epoch Cycle's USD price history spans from Oct 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $8.99, the highest is $8.99, and the first visible tracked price is $8.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Epoch Cycle's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $8.99, from Oct 5, 2026 through Oct 5, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $8.99. The latest run records $8.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $8.99
  • Current list price: $8.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Epoch Cycle at $8.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
