A.D. 2044

A.D. 2044 is a video game in the adventure genre developed by L.K. Avalon and published by L.K. Avalon originally released in 1996. It is currently playable on Windows.

This is a point-and-click adventure set in a near-future post-apocalyptic world where women now rule. After a group of radical women hijack nuclear missiles demanding to share world power with men, but are met with resistance, missiles are launched from both sides and a nuclear winter ensues. A thousand women attending a conference survive and establish an all-female society underground. Later, in the year 2044, they discover a lone male preserved in a hibernation capsule during a mining operation.

The player, in the role of the male, escapes from his confinement and explores society in search of objects to help him while avoiding female androids. Your character will talk to himself in a digitized voice and there is also another male voice narrating the story and providing clues. On each screen you have to look for hot spots, which can also be examined and are indicated by a magnifying glass cursor. Similarly, you can pick up items if a hand cursor appears. When you examine items, they will rotate in a special full-screen display mode. Some items can be combined in this mode.
