Is there a name for the trope where a story is high fantasy at first glance, except for it's not fantasy and is actually set in a post-apocalypse dystopian future?

Oh wait, do you mean on the post apocalypse idea? Ehhhh I’m not certain it is. There is a creation story, and then a “do over” in the lore. But nothing like our civ level in the past for it.

There’s probably a lore video about it on YouTube somewhere though.
