An action game with RPG elements in a cruel post-apocalyptic world, a world with radiation, hunger and disease.

And the main character, the Chosen of the North-216 Community, will have to deal with it.
World of the post-apocalypse. First person shooter for survival.
The Sun Origin: Post-apocalyptic action — is a first-person shooter with RPG elements with its own history, hundreds of tasks, a huge arsenal of weapons and armor, trade, fighting factions, mutants, bandits and prowlers. Explore the world with a huge number of locations, buy the best weapons from the merchants and improve them. You will need only the best equipment! After all, your main goal is to save your Community from hunger. And let the struggle for survival begin!!!
Brief background.
In the year 2050, the sun unleashed a catastrophic surge of energy into space, a wave of power that would plunge our civilization into chaos for centuries. Though predicted for years by the scientific community, their warnings were ignored by the world leaders that instead squabbled over petty territorial concerns.
When the wave of energy struck the earth, a storm of radioactive particles blanketed the atmosphere in a deadly, carcinogenic fog. The fog killed indiscriminately… the young, old, rich and poor all fell in equal measure. Only those that had heeded the warnings and taken shelter in abandoned bunkers were spared.
When their supplies eventually ran out and these communities were forced to emerge from their shelters, they saw a new world of desolation and chaos. A world in which the laws of civilization had been replaced by the law of the gun. The few areas that still had clean water and arable land were held by ruthless warlords and their armies.
It was in this world that a warrior known only as Raven would emerge. A warrior that would save his people by bending the wasteland to his will. A warrior that would one day become a legend.
It's a challenge! The world of the apocalypse or you?
This Action game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
This is a good videogame ! You kmow.
Very good gameplay loved the story and the characters .. Gets difficult at times but the world provides definitely one of the best shooter games Ive played in a while definitely recommend for the $1 its more than worth it.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. . . , , , . , , , . – ,.
Great guns and fun shooter game.
Very cool game, very similar to stalker. We would like a new update, the game is very interesting.
This game is awesome. Was hit by surprise with the traveling mechanics but we get it, its a mobile game. But it does scratch that stalker itch if you are waiting for pc parts like us. We were very surprised by how many different events, mechanics and stuff you can actually do in this game. ITS INCREDIBLE honestly. Once you get past the learning curve youll be ok trust us. Our advice to newbies is to save money and try now to buy any weapons right away. You might get some as a reward wink wink.
Hundreds of hours of gameplay. Good FPS action. Search, scavenging and human deals/interactions. Also excellent save/load system – helps to redo difficult missions. No ads or solicitation for money. Worth considering getting a good weapon and/or armor early rather than grinding it out and getting the good stuff at the tail end of the main missions. Lots of depth and different ways to approach missions alsowith interestingly different results (e.g. Some missions may not become available if you dont talk to other characters in a certain order).
A mobile stalker with a big huge map we love it.
Im in love with this game the gun variety is amazing and if you play on a high end device you will get great performance and visuals witch definitely add too the game but Im really hoping we can get that kit from the developers we just talked too experience in game and was told to write a review for a good kit thats for sure a great way too get reviews but either way we still was going too review and give it a solid 5 everyone who loves stalker should play this.
Great Story,Great Grafics,Great open World and Great monsters but we will like to have more monsters but is a really good game.
Awesome game mechanics for a mobile post-apocalyptic shooter.
We enjoy the game so for its been interesting and challenging but we wished they had more descriptions on how to use normal items.
A very great open world for the price, we're surprised its not sold at a higher price.
Its one of the great survival games we ever play.
It doesn't matter what we do we cant find thug.
Best fallout inspired game out there to be honest nice graphics and gameplay.
Great game! A little rough here and there, but that just adds to the charm in our opinion.
We like that you can save anywhere its still a challenge on easy.
We had a decently played story mode on this game but it all went to crap when the game didnt back up our data and thus ended up deleting all our game and its files, please fix for future players.
Been a fan of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R series this is pretty much stalker for iOS as close as you can get. Im still in the beginning of them game so we dont know how much it changes later on. Our only complaints we hope will be added is we wish it had controller support and better auto save options. So far it seems it only auto saves when you buy something IAP we end up losing 10-20 minutes of progress forgetting to manually save our game before shutting the app down or our phone battery dying. Other than that Ive been loving it so far.
Playing on iPad mini and set all graphics to highest and highest FPS. Runs perfectly and the world looks amazing. Pace of play is a little slow. However its because of the need to scavenge for life sustaining items, which is kind of the point of a survival game ;) Can spend real money to obtain important items to speed up game progress. Tons of side quests and main story quests. Fun game so far.
Ive really enjoyed this game so far and highly recommend it to everyone.
Fix your grammar we are continue to improve The Sun: Origin fix it to we are continuing to improve The Sun: Origin.
You dont see a lot of games like this, THID game is awesome for what it is keep up the work. A lot like stalker one of our favorites good job.
All you need to do is fix the grammar, its a pretty good fall out pocket shooter.
We think that the game turned out to be really good especially for the smartphones. The story is very interesting and the setting is unusual.
Its super crazy game but control design and graphic is so bad Needs update. We love shooter story games, we die on them, A very sweet game, but the controls are very deserted and dead, so you can benefit from the wonderful design of this fantasy game to your game and we hope to solve the problem we hope that you will launch a new game, which is (Stalker) on the mobile phone. It will be great, and we can play it on the mobile phone. Like the (Pascal's wager) game, it was exported from the computer to the mobile phone, It is a piece of art among all phone games RIp Horror (graphic&story) Dead clade rising (design&story) FGB Operators (Graphic) Kontra – Multiplayer fps (Excellent freedom of control) * Alein: isolation (story).
Always thought it would be nice to have a game like stalker on mobile and this is as close as youll get right now. Worth a shot.
Would make it an instant 5 out of 5.
We have a Nimbus controller and it would be nice if you supported made for phone game controllers. Nine months and no updates makes us worried. The game says its still in development when you start it up, so hopefully it will be added. Has a metro mixed with fallout kind of feel, which is great. Other reviewers who said you cant edit the controls are wrong; most of the controls can be edited. Its just unfortunate that FPS games on tablets and phones basically require controllers which again this doesnt support.
Granted Ive only played this game for a few minutes, it is very good. Our only game mechanic complaint is that radiation killed us in about 30 seconds. Also, we think we speak for everyone when we say mfi controllers need to be remappable. The standard way it is set up makes the game nearly impossible to play with a controller. And if a controller is being used, UI buttons should disappear. All in all, solid game, 8/10. Would definitely recommend.
Needs update. Story does not complete to save community or key to open last bunker door for the outside world. Quests were too conditional on game world random chance. Poor quest completion implementations for gameplay. Some of the near end quests depended too much on the random encounters. Also the righteous exoskeleton we purchased did not give extra strength to carry more weight, even real life exosuit from Lockheed Martin HULC could carry extra 200lbs, so game Exo should be fixed to reflect that carry weight ability. Also the quest to pay 500,k to get bunker key is extremely expensive, and unreasonable exploitation, since getting to the outside world would help the entire wasteland communities, he should reduce the price for mutual gain. There are many other things to gripe about but most of it has to do with the quests being too confusingly vague or too conditional on the game world instead of player choices or missions. Still cant open the bunker door yo the outside world because someone changed the password in the story.
Was so pumped to finally find the combat bow, but it seems to be bugged and wont shoot. If there is any fix to get it to work, we would really like to know.
We prefer to play games like this with a controller because we hate the mobile buttons but this games button layout for controller is awful, if the developers see this please fix controller button layout.
We love playing games on our ps4 and Xbox like post apocalyptic games. This really reminds us of some of our favorite games like metro exodus, and dying light (kinda).
Games like THESE on the App Store, owe us a console-like experience. These are the kind of games that are TOO GOOD for mobile phones. At least have controller/MFi support heck, maybe even add Apple TV supportSUPPORT, as in no additional cost to be able to play this INSTANTLY on Apple TV , instant download. Controller/MFi support will provide a more harmonious relationship between the input/output (controls) and gameplay (whats going on in the game), hence better experience. Apple TV support. Sometimes you simply need a bigger screen. Whenever youre trying to navigate the game, you want to be ready for whatever the game throws at you. Enemies may be shooting at you in the distance, nighttime falls on you, you want to be able to SEE whats in front of you, and a bigger screen will help with that. Conclusion: These are just 2 tips that will enhance the game, making it more user-friendly, and more accessible. Much thanks for reading this, -The Levite Tribe.
Ive had it on iOS on android we played it when it first came out. :(.
This game is fantastic but we stopped playing 1 year and half ago because we couldnt stand the touch screen for a FPS. No it has mfi support yet none of the buttons work and there is no button mapping. We can look around and move forward and back. We cant even move side to side. Please please please devs fix the mfi support and hopefully add button mapping.
It can be a good game but can you make it for iPod to pls.
Nice game and all, but when we bought the ghost set, it said the purchase was successful, but we did not get the IAP items or IAP save. Can we get help with this please? We dont want to waste another $2.99.
Recently downloaded game and made a purchase in the game to get a good start, but once it was made, the items never showed up, the restore purchase button doesnt work and we even tried closing the game and giving it a restart but nothing…account was deducted the amount the in-game purchase was for…not sure what to do about this issue besides attempt to get a refund somehow.
Fun but every time we get off it resets our progress, how do we save our game.
We hoped they fix some of the impossible missions. Like could get an opportunity to get through the Atria Bunker from the other sides and add the location X15. We knew that u tried ur best to make this game better. But we suggest u to fix and add more thing into this game. We know u can do it. Good luck.
