400+ days and nothing. 29 strait days with no out break and one happens in hawii , two days to get there and its gone? when is the game over

I'm having the same question. Did you destroy all the zombie machines? I have destroyed around 15 and it already gets boring. If I have to destroy them manually in every country, I'd rather call it quits, it's not worth it

Sorry for the delay in our reply.

As the game progresses countries will gain better defense (the more equipment they buy from you the better their defense becomes) from zombies, some, to the point that they can eliminate small zombie outbreaks by themselves automatically.

The game was originally developed as no-win 'how many days can you last before the world is overrun by zombies', but as more players asked for an end goal, the destruction of all red mist machines worldwide became the goal to actually win the game. We did not set clearing all current zombies as a goal as the game starts at the very beginning of the apocalypse so it would be far too easy to get to a stage where there were currently no zombies worldwide.

If you have any suggestions on what you would like to see as an end goal you're more than welcome to suggest and we can see if there is traction to it from other players.

Appreciate the feedback.

The destruction of all red mist machines is a good ending condition, but if there is a machine in every country, it would take too long to destroy them. There should be machines in some countries (about 1/3 maybe) and a diplomat assigned to a country either finds one or confirms there is no machine in that country

There's a lot of ways you could end this.

Perhaps you could leave the mist machines as is; however after eleminating a certain number of them you discover clues as to where the main control unit is which would be an appropriately challenging 'boss' sort of battle.

Perhaps a special one time only mission which has special parameters. Like a paratroop insertion via vulture and no support. Maybe even a stealth sort of situation where if you are discovered before planting the C4 or whatever you automatically lose.

Great suggestions for us to think about. We are working on some new mission types as well as some more unique mission events which will move closer to revealing more and wrapping up the whole back story.

Excellent. I am very interested to know what happened to Safe that left it in the state it is in at game start.

Is there an updated way on how to beat the game or is it the same with destroying all red mist machines?
