What it is

This is a city-building strategy simulation game where players rebuild civilization after a zombie apocalypse. Players manage survivors, make tough decisions, and defend their fort against threats.

The catch

Why it is here

It is here because it sits in the band this site looks at: well reviewed at 86% positive, but with 2,037 reviews, far fewer than the household names carry.
