The premise, in the publisher's words
You play the role of a crazed mutant freak, the Atomic Butcher. On your search for food in the post-apocalyptic wastelands, you blatantly destroy everything in your way and finish off a dying society. Resources are scarce, so you turn to the next best thing: meat that is still running around; whether those are dangerous mutated animals, or humans trying to rebuild a broken world does not make much of a difference. On the bottomline, they are all very tasty.
