Early Access Release
This is a unique FPS survival game focusing on teamwork, fortification, creativity and strategy. Secure a structure or roam free, the choice is yours. It focuses on realistic survival, post zombie infestation. The game takes advantage of day and night cycles. Preparing during daylight hours when moving around the world is less risky. Make use of existing structures instead of building them. Play as a team to better your chances to survive each night. Use the day time hours to roam the island, find loot and prepare for the night to come. Fortify structures, set traps, start fires, get meals and bandages ready. When the night falls, you will not want to venture too far from a secure structure. The action takes place on a huge map composed of a number of islands, each having over 100 square kilometres. Arriving on one of them, the players have to face hordes of zombies and fulfil their characters’ basic needs. The main objective is to, well, survive the night. The gameplay is divided into two separate stages. During the day, the player focuses on exploration and searching for water, food, weapons, and items, which can be used to fortify their shelter. When it gets dark, the main objective is to stay alive and kill everything that wants you dead. In contrast to other titles from this genre, it is not possible to construct buildings. However, the player can make use of those, which are already there and turn them into a shelter/magazine combination, and strengthen them with items found on the island (boards, planks, plates, furniture, etc.). Vehicles play a crucial role in the game – you can use them in order get somewhere or transport something (given it is not damaged and does not require repairing). The title features a crafting system, which enables combining numerous items into unique weapons and tools. Also, the player can use it in order to combine and modify parts of vehicles and devices collected before. By design, the game features a large dose of realistic survival elements. Therefore, it is vital to fulfil the character’s basic needs systematically. Otherwise, the hero will grow tired, which results in slow pace of moving, decreased shooting accuracy, and lower weight capacity. Food can be acquired in a number of ways: you can hunt game, set traps, fish, gather blueberries and other edible plants, or even grow them yourself. As the title features not only a day and night system, but also changing seasons, it is important to keep the character warm (by setting up bonfires or, while indoors, turning the heating system on). Mental condition also plays an important role – killing people exerts a negative impact on the main character; progressively, their sight begins to deteriorate, hands shake, and strange visions appear. During gameplay, the hero gains experience and develops skills through repeating the same action. The more you hunt, set traps, shoot, and fortify shelters, the better you are with these. |
