Developed by Zurvivor · Published by PlaySurrounDead









In a post-apocalyptic world devastated by a virus, you are a survivor left to fend for yourself. Explore towns, camps, and other locations while avoiding or fighting zombies and hostile human survivors.
Search buildings and points of interest for weapons, clothing, food, medicine, and equipment. Manage needs such as hunger, thirst, and radiation, and find, fuel, and repair vehicles to travel and carry supplies. Trade with survivors at safe zones and trader hideouts.
Choose where to settle and build or fortify a base, using found and crafted items for storage and shelter. Improve abilities through a skill tree, and adjust difficulty and gameplay settings to suit your run. The game currently offers a single-player experience, with changing weather and day-night cycles.
Players who enjoy the game often highlight its satisfying scavenging and exploration loop, with weapons and supplies to find across a broad range of locations. Reviews also praise the freedom to build a base, tune survival difficulty, and play at either a relaxed or more demanding pace. Some find the solo experience engaging for many hours, while others want co-op and more reasons to keep exploring.
5 years have passed since civilization fought against the virus, but nothing has changed. The world lays in pieces, with no one to lead us to a brighter future fighting back against the zombies, people have fallen back to a dark life style.
With few remnants of civilization left, you are left to your own devices to survive in an unforgiving landscape.
