I've had this one on my backlog for a while now, and I have no idea why I haven't played it before now, because DAMN

 

Okay, so its a Zombie apocalypse/ City Builder type game. It takes Google Maps data to create your play area.....

 

I started a map, with my house as the HQ, and it has been amazing so far. You can create any location in the world. The game uses the map data to sort out how difficult of a time you will have. Cities obviously are the worst locations.  The maps are not perfect, in that it assumes the sizes of the houses based off of google footprint. So in my case it has my house slightly smaller than it actually is, because the google map image isn't current. (See the screenshots below)

 

You can dismantle houses for resources, and you find settlers all over the place. 

 

There is a story, that I won't spoil because I think I am about a third of the way through it, I could be wrong there though. I am way to busy farming resources to build a fortress to worry about other survivors in DC and Baltimore.

 

Two gripes people have about the game:

Zombies can cross any body of water, so can your squads. The Dev's did this for pathing reasons, as the game is still in Early Access, and I guess trying to differentiate water on a google map is hard when importing data. IDK, it doesn't' phase me, I just build more walls

 

Radio transmissions are frequent, and can't be ignored. You have to choose an option, but luckily it does pause the game for you. That being said if you don't choose an option quickly the npc's will get grumpy.

 

 

 

So the screenshots I am attaching are of my play area. The "Star" is my house, the HQ, the rest are shelters, and warehouses I am setting up, along with some build orders, etc. I zoomed really far out for these so you could see the street names and more of the play area.

I forgot to say that those pics are at night, I need to get some day time pics, but thats why they are so dark and washed out.

Changed over to Edinburgh to build and it forced me to use the Castle.... Oh No! whatever will I do with massive stone walls and insanely huge buildings to use as shelter and warehouses...

Honestly I am loving this game, let me know if you all have places you want me to check out

Okay..... Edinburgh might have been a mistake..... apparently the scots really like to turn zombie. I've never seen hordes this big in game before.
