About This War of Mine: This War of Mine is a simulation in which you play not as an elite soldier but as a group of civilians trying to survive in a besieged city. They deal with shortages of food and medicine as well as constant danger from snipers and hostile scavengers. The pace is set by a day-and-night cycle: by day you look after your hideout, craft, trade and care for your survivors, while at night one of the civilians sets out to search various locations for supplies. You make life-and-death decisions guided by your conscience, and the world and characters are randomly generated each time you start a new game.

About these games
Set in the medieval world of Gloria Victis, the game follows a handful of civilians trapped in the last stronghold of a besieged city. By day they build their camp, craft supplies and treat the wounded; by night they explore the ransacked city for resources and recruits while avoiding enemy patrols. They must keep the defenders supplied with arrows, weapons, armour and medical care ahead of battles fought every few days. Help is weeks away and, as hunger and disease spread and tensions rise, hard moral choices arise about sustaining the troops or keeping the civilians alive.
Hobo: Tough Life is an urban survival RPG in which you play a homeless person. You roam the streets of Praslav, scavenge for food and gear, beg and steal to make it through the coming winter, either alone or online with up to four players. The game leans heavily on story – dozens of plotlines inspired by real events and people, encounters with distinctive characters, joining various factions – and it also lets you build your own hideout, where warmth, hygiene and food all interact realistically.
Ashwalkers is a non-linear survival sim about leading a group of survivors through a hostile world after a volcanic apocalypse. The player faces moral dilemmas, manages the party's food, equipment and medication, guards its physical and mental health and harvests resources to craft supplies. Every playthrough opens a different path, with 34 possible endings. Set two hundred years after the first geological disasters, the wasteland pits the group against the weather, ash storm, grey blizzard and acid rain; its members are captain Petra, fighter Sinh, young scholar Kali and cautious scout Nadir.
Dead In Vinland is a survival and management game with RPG and adventure elements, following a Viking family trying to survive on a mysterious island. The player leads Eirik and his kin in exile, looking after their physical and mental health, gathering resources, expanding the camp and deciding how to deal with other people, who may help or may not. Play is turn-based, there are three difficulty settings, and the mysteries of Vinland can be uncovered along the way. The journey involves exploring many areas, completing non-linear quests and making choices that shape what happens to the characters.
Dread Dawn is an open-world zombie survival game set in a city placed under quarantine because of an unknown virus. You take on the role of a student who failed to catch the evacuation convoy and, together with classmates and other survivors, has to defend the school, stay alive and wait for rescue. The metropolis comes with hospitals, subway stations, prisons and schools, and the story is told through many cutscenes, covering both the calm before the outbreak and the chaos as the city falls. Materials you gather can strengthen the camp’s defences, while spare areas allow you to grow food or keep chickens for eggs, and surplus crops can be traded with other survivors.
Night is Coming is a survival strategy game set in a fantasy world inspired by Slavic mythology and the nature of Eastern Europe. The Darkness devours the land, survivors hide in the woods, and the player leads such a group: building a settlement, gathering resources and shielding its people from monsters lurking in the dark. Every settler is an individual with own attributes, needs and skills developed in crafts and combat, and morale shapes their resilience. Besides managing the village and training warriors, magic can be used, and in time the developed lands must be left behind for new ones.
