A.D. 2044 is a Polish adventure game by LK Avalon, released September 9, 1996 on Windows.

The game is a remake of a 1991 game of the same name developed by R.M.P. Software and published by LK Avalon, released to Atari 8-bit computers. It was a simple point and click adventure game created by Roland Pantoła. The new game is based on the same narrative, but with updated graphics.[1]

It was the first Polish computer game released on two CDs and to have rendered three-dimensional graphics.[2] The game was accompanied by a promotion in mass media that was unprecedented in scale for the country.[3] While the game was originally released in Polish, English subtitles were finally added to the game in 2017.[4]

Plot and gameplay

Based on the film Seksmisja by Juliusz Machulski, the game is set in a future post-apocalyptic world where women rule the planet. This is caused by a radical women's group who capture some nuclear weapons and demand equal power from men, who respond by sending missiles which causes a nuclear winter. A thousand women survive by being in an underground bunker. In 2044, they discover a single male who was preserved in a hibernation capsule. The player is this male who escapes capture and begins to explore the environment.

The game plays like a point and click adventure. Players collect and manipulate items and click on hotspots. A male voice narrates the story and also provides hints.
