Yes the purpose in general is to survive, I've heard of people lasting years in-game. I can only last around a week.

As of now most of the story comes from your imagination.

I would describe it as a zombie apocalypse survival simulation
The simulation part is what makes it quite unique
It is not really like the other zombie apocalypse survival games which are much more casual in general

The game is an isometric version of Scum. Wouldn't be surprised if the devs of that game played a lot of PZ.

Best I got was 2 weeks before i got deleted.

As someone who just bought this game yesterday I can officially say if you like survival games you will love this game! Honestly don’t know how I didn’t pick this up earlier. Steep learning curve but once you get the hang of it I feel like it very worth the money! I’d suggest watching a few videos before you buy because it’s one of those games you kinda need to know what you are doing.

Same story. I also picked up the game yesterday. Must be something in the water.

So far I think it's good. I'm trying to make things up as I go and that's a lot of fun to do. I'm sure I'm missing 80% of the things there is to know, but I did manage to survive for 4 days now so things are looking better. When things go south, it's game over fast though :)

yea i love the perma death aspect. It really does add that fear element to the game so making the right choices is a must, making the wrong choice can end you pretty quick. what an awesome experience so far and id highly recommend it to all my friends who enjoy survival games.

You know I was just thinking about this whole concept today, as I've bought the game years ago and am really just now getting into it. I find it very.. amazing but still I will stop playing with the thought of just "why am I doing this?". It isn't so much that I don't enjoy sandbox games, I just find myself lacking motivation lately.

There is no goal (yet who knows when or if), you simply just survive as long as you can, there are also challenges and you can even make your own, add mods etc.

The game captures very well the sort of "realism" it would probably take to survive, and you can really be a lot of different people, with traits (more added with mods).

The longer I play, the better it gets. This is a really fun game :gearthumbsup:

Me and a mate are essentially running a sim, using as close to our real world stats and skills to see how we would fare.

On my solo runs, it's kind of a story generator

If it was your choice what wud your goal be, your survival, killing 8 billions zeds to clean the planet or go on a Quest to find water bottles a generator and fuel for it, then this is your Quest. I think it is one of the fun things in this game i have to set up my own goals for what i want to do/fix/find today and then make food, drink ready for a trip, then go get my self killed and load in to the same town, find my zombie self, kill me, get my stuff from now death zombie me and then complete the Quest. But that is just to learn the ways around the game when im getting good ill start a new clean game and make a super survivor (As if that wud ever happen)
