Terminus: Zombie Survivors

It's a good game, but god. Permadeath is suffering. It's one of Those Games that will just crush you out of nowhere. I got to day 80 trying for the 100 day challenge, I had so much armour on I was overencumbered, I had full night vision, everything, and a Tough Zombie from just outside my vision range had enough AP to enter my range, 3 hit me for 12hp each and take me out. And I even dodged one of the blows. A 50 hour run gone in a single turn. From all my understanding, it shouldn't have been able to do 3 strikes while also moving 4 tiles, but I guess I just got stupid unlucky. I won't be playing it for a while after that. That sucked so bad. I wish I could give both a yes and a no recommendation. To the developers: I would suggest either reducing the amount of swings a Tough Zombie can do per turn (especially considering they can hit for 15!), or making it much more obvious how much of a threat they are (designwise, making them reflect something like the Tank from L4D, since that's statwise what they feel like, hehe - maybe making them louder or more visible too as a result).

Turn based Survial game.... Manage your action points as your character's food and thirst meter drops every turn. How will you survive? How could you survie the Zombies... what about the humans?

An unexpected gem, completely unassuming appearance but a solid gameplay with some replayabilty value. Your starting profession can totally change the way you play. At first the highest difficulty seemed impossible to beat but after a few runs and with some extra skill points it turned out to be not that hard. My only complaint about this game is the gap between the standard victory and all other alternatives. Simply reaching Terminus was not a big deal and I was eager to try other ways to win but all of them require absolutely unreasonable amount of grind and luck. Like I've visited 2/3 of the places on the map including all the libraries and churches and still couldn't find all the tomes to learn sailing/helicopter.

once you get how it is played, it clicks and then your dead

its a fun game story is good aswell

Love it. But it is has several modes and the default setting is just ridiculously hard. they need to grant more action points, make travel between map areas cost half the action points, if any. And most of all, They need to give you some sort of starter kit with a bunch more food and water, and make the rate at which you get hungry far lower. I like that there is so much depth and lots to learn and craft, but trying to build up resources when loot doesn't respawn, is basically impossible. You will be encumbered despite having 3 bags but nothing you can eat. It is day 6 of the apocalypse and half the found food will be rotten. Eating it will hurt you faster. you need time to read books, and even sleep, but time you don't have as you are starving. I would like to make a base, scavenge, come home, read books, grow food, craft things etc. , but because resources don't respawn, you will need to be on the constant move, form one house to the next trying to find food. and hopefully not turn a corner with low AP to find a zombie that will mess up your day. Like others have mentioned, this is project zomboid lite version, and i couldn't get into that one either, even though it is a g…
