Features
- Survival
The game is extremely hardcore. Your characters can be injured, infected, killed in battles or in accident. Your supplies of food and medicine are limited, and someone in your group will have to starve so all your group can survive.
- Events
During your travel, you can encounter hundreds of different events, in which you can find supplies, fight zombies or meet another survivors. Some events could require hard decisions with life and death consequences. For example: someone in your group was captured by bandits, and you must choose between leaving him to die, risking the whole group and getting him out or trying to trade him for some of your supplies.
- Battle System
Battles are based on tower defense mechanics. You must destroy waves of enemies or you can win some time and then run from them. You must take into account skills and morale of your characters, because some of them can quail or faint in battle, or even attack another group member.
