Pump: 10th Anniversary Edition

In the not-too-distant future, after a catastrophic and world-wide economic collapse, the United States is a broken shell of its former self. But on the island of Manhattan, a comfortable standard of living still exists that only the world's richest can afford. Sheltered from the chaos and anarchy of the outside world, New York City has become a privately-run sanctuary operated by a mysterious and powerful company named Maddox Corporation.
As one of the world's last remaining and fully functioning cities, Manhattan requires ongoing human resources for its daily operations, and to provide the luxurious services that wealthy clients still demand. To recruit workers for the island, Maddox runs a lottery program, which offers its winners the chance to escape what is now a brutal and desperate existence in the real world, and instead begin a privileged life in the safety and comfort of a city that most will only ever dream about again.
But, of course, there is a catch. There is always a catch.
