Better Days casts players as an investigator sent by a company into mysterious spaces to investigate strange events and recover abnormal objects. Its setting links a post-apocalyptic world with scenes spanning different eras, while the story draws on historical events associated with human greed. The result is a third-person action adventure framed around both investigation and survival.
Its core loop combines shooting, skill-based combat, exploration and resource recovery in player-versus-environment missions. Players can choose among four female protagonists with different weapons, combat skills and growth paths, and collect mysterious objects that grant abilities. The game also describes independent mission maps where players seek resources and try to escape, alongside an open-world map for free exploration and vehicle driving. These contrasting activities give Better Days a mix of structured encounters and room to roam.
The store identifies Better Days as single-player, while its description also says online play with friends is available.
