I (Bengie Rodriguez, TGG) would recommend Mr. Podunkian´s FPS/RPG/TPS post-apocalyptic game "Wasted" to those who enjoy a good challenge accompanied with a pleasant and funny story.

"Exploring, looting, and killing everything that stands in your way – these are the main objectives in WASTED: A Post-Apocalyptic Pub Crawler. A newer offering by Adult Swim Games, and developed by Mr. Podunkian, WASTED draws immediate comparisons to the Fallout franchise. This is not an unfair comparison for either game, despite other outlets and LPers poking fun. The similarity seems to be the entire point. There are obvious differences, and while it’s clearly a nod to the Fallout universe and lifestyle, WASTED manages to stand out quite nicely on its own."
Part 6 in the Indie Games and Craft Beer Pairing. Janet and Laura each pick an indie game to play, pair it with a craft beer, and review them both. This week features Back in Black IPA and All Day IPA with The Binding of Isaac and WASTED.
You will die in Wasted. You will die a lot, it is a given. But thanks to its easy-to-learn, enjoyable gameplay, great use of roguelike elements and perfectly implemented Thunderdome-esque 1980s atmosphere, you will easily find yourself coming back again and again, ready to cough up more extra lives like the the arcade games of its era.
