20/100 bad game (aka 90% Autoplay) Should be described as UNITY hobby project gone cashgrab. - horrible gfx - bad mechanics >>> No TowerDefense game, just fighting off waves of zombies. Not worth it, even for free.

The game begins with your character stranded in the aftermath of a global disaster, forced to build and defend a fragile home base amid waves of hostile mutants. You start small, constructing basic walls and defensive structures, gathering limited resources, and gradually upgrading both your home and arsenal.
