What is Dead Age?
After joining a camp at the start of a zombie outbreak, you manage supplies, scavenge, craft gear, and fight zombies and hostile gangs in turn-based battles. Death ends a run, but earned upgrades carry into new attempts with different missions and survivors. Your decisions also affect the group's story.
For you if...
- +you enjoy balancing camp supplies against scavenging risks
- +you like decisions that shape relationships between survivors
Not for you if...
- −you want fast combat rather than deliberate turns
- −you dislike restarting when a survival run fails
What players say
