You lead up to four survivors through a randomized, zombie-infested world in this top-down real-time strategy-action game. You search buildings for supplies, craft equipment, and control where each survivor moves and looks. The campaign includes capturing and defending resource-producing buildings, while multiplayer pits survivors trying to reach extraction against another player's infected.
