The game set in the year 2029, depicts the US being occupied by North Korea. It unfolds into a complete timeline of events that detail the designing of the APeX II personal computer (PC) along with alternative historical stories relating to Apple. The PC is depicted as an iPhone-style device called aPhone, which follows numerous other events from 1953.

On the contrary, Crytek's first-person shooter Homefront: The Revolution portrays an entirely different scenario wherein you will be guiding the Resistance movement in guerrilla warfare versus a North Korean military force.
