You mean agoraphobia? I wonder how easily you could make such a game, post-apocalyptic, with huge emptiness separating gameplay elements. You'd need a GPS-style navigator to make the wide space viable while still hostile, plus a way to quickly traverse the land without diminishing the vastness.

Agoraphobia is the fear of public spaces, and usually a fear of social encounters of people. I'm talking more about the fear of places like deserts or the woods, where you're a long way from society. Forests and cold deserts are common settings for Lovecraft's stories, for example. Is that still agoraphobia?

Also, I'm not really talking about post-apocalyptic. I'm talking about In the Mountains of Madness or The Dunwich Horror. That's not post-apocalyptic. Also, the maps don't need to be huge, I'd imagine a square kilometer would be a sufficiently large size.
