About these games

How to Survive 2

This sequel to How to Survive sends players to Louisiana, where they must go solo or with friends to secure food, water and shelter while fending off zombies. They craft tools and weapons, build traps and barricades to protect their camp, and explore randomly generated environments. The original infection has since spread into a worldwide pandemic, and the game features a day and night cycle with changing weather. Multiplayer supports up to four players locally on one PC and up to sixteen invited players at a camp, plus elite quests where you get only one attempt.

7 Days to Die

7 Days to Die is an open-world game that blends a first-person shooter, survival horror and a role-playing game. In a brutal post-apocalyptic setting overrun by the undead, the player fights, crafts and repairs weapons, clothes, tools and vehicles, builds forts with traps and electric power, mines and develops skills. It offers several biomes and worlds up to 100 square kilometres in size, the campaign world of Navezgane and randomly generated worlds with over 700 unique locations. Players can work together or compete against each other.

HumanitZ

HumanitZ is an isometric open-world sandbox survival game set in a world ruined by a zombie outbreak that wiped out civilization. Players scavenge resources from ruins, craft items, build, and fight hordes of zeeks, infected wildlife and hostile survivors, while hunger and a dynamic weather system threaten them. It can be played solo, cooperatively, or online in PvE and PvP modes, and drivable vehicles help cross dangerous territory. The path leads to The Island, where the truth behind the outbreak remains undiscovered.

No One Survived

No One Survived is a cooperative multiplayer survival sandbox game set in an open world, where players and their friends scavenge supplies and build shelters. The player must constantly monitor their character's needs, since a poor condition can lead to death, while staying alert to dangerous zombies. While exploring, they gather materials, learn skills such as medicine, electrical chemistry or metallurgy, and use them to craft items and structures. The changing seasons affect temperature, weather and resource availability, so players must switch clothing and grow crops in a greenhouse during winter.

10 Miles To Safety

10 Miles To Safety is an isometric action strategy game for 1–4 players, in which you must fight your way to rescue through a limitless, procedurally generated world overrun by the Infected. You explore houses, shops and vehicles, gathering materials, ammo and blueprints to craft items and build defenses. Daytime is for scavenging, while at night you must survive using barricades and traps, as more dangerous creatures hunt in the dark. The closer you get to your goal, the more lethal the Infected become, but you also find stronger weapons and gear.

Survival Nation: Lost Horizon

Survival Nation: Lost Horizon is a top-down open-world RPG about survival, in which you defend a group of survivors from hordes of zombies. You upgrade your gear and skills, and each survivor can develop their own abilities across three skill trees: Combat, Survival, and Endurance. You scour derelict buildings for canned goods, hunt animals and fish, and grow produce in the camp’s garden. You can team up with other players in PVE challenges or set up your own server without them.
