Not zombies i need a zombie apocalypse baves please add more zombies and like world wars z ### 2/5 — Don’t bother *2026-05-21, version 0.28.6* Level 1-40 is great. No new updates they just recycle the game. Still charging people but the amount of players that are leaving the game due to the developers not interested in any future updates. You can’t get the items unless you pay to get broadcast centre. You can’t get the items in lone tunnels unless you can find players with power to help you but they are all leaving. It’s just about taking your money and leave the game stagnant. ### 2/5 — Long wait *2026-04-24, version 0.28.6* Why do we have to wait a whole month to make a ssr weapon I understand waiting a month to buy it with crystals but crafting and having to wait that long is diabolical ### 3/5 — Gamepad controller support? *2026-03-17, version 0.28.6* Please can you add game pad controller support, which would help to meet at the game were interesting and immersive. Thanks in advance ### 4/5 — Controller error not calibrated *2026-03-09* . ### 2/5 — Stuck on Press to Start Screen on Mac M1 *2026-02-23* The game looks visually impressive and runs smoothly on my MacBook M1 — no crashes or performance issues. However, it gets stuck on the “Press to Start” screen and never proceeds. The UI loads fine, but the game simply doesn’t respond. Tried reinstalling, checking internet, and Game Center settings, but the issue persists. Hopefully the developers address this startup/login problem soon because the game itself seems promising. ### 2/5 — Hard to play *2026-02-21, version 0.27.2* Game it’s self seems very good but the fact you can not move the control buttons pretty much makes it unplayable as they all just get in your way. ### 4/5 — Game is great but *2026-01-22, version 0.27.2* The game is enjoyable until you get to level 40 then it becomes repetitive that’s all you can do is just loot. You can’t find titanium or nano fibre to upgrade shelter. I’m about to quit until perhaps the developers start looking at the complaints. ### 5/5 — 무과금도 시간 투자하면 할만 함 *2026-01-19* 대대적인 업데이트 개편 이후로 월간 VIP 패스에서 보석이 빠졌습니다. 대신 극악의 난이도였던 무기나 방어구 강화 확률이 개선 되었고요… 한마디로 무과금도 시간만 좀 투자하면 할만 합니다. 여전히 버그 투성이긴 하지만, 모바일로 할 수 있으면서 리니지나 디아블로 느낌도 나면서 자동사냥 아니고 현질 필수에 길드 전쟁 죽어라 하는 양산형 게임도 아닌 mmorpg는 이 게임이 거의 유일하지 않나 싶네요. 여기에 좀비물까지 좋아하는 분이라면 추천합니다. **Developer response:** 생존자님 안녕하세요, 다키스트 데이즈입니다. 이용에 만족을 드리지 못한 것 같아 마음이 매우 무겁습니다. 기재하신 불편사항은 담당 부서에 전달하여 개선될 수 있도록 노력하겠습니다. 이외에도 게임 이용 중 불편한 부분이나 궁금한 점이 있으시다면 게임 내 고객센터 혹은 dd@hangame.com을 통해 언제든 말씀 부탁드립니다. ### 5/5 — Just like a console game! *2026-01-16, version 0.27.0* The developers definitely were fans of state of decay. My favorite apocalypse console game and now an identical mobile version equals perfection. Thanks for creating a great game! ### 5/5 — Simplicity of this game makes it more enjoyable to play *2026-01-14* I came across this game couple of mths ago and since then I love playing this game. Basic tactics and no extra of fancy gadgets. Good old gun and zombies to kill . Few things to work on is like game lags in cops. Graphics needs to be improved, a little aiming mechanism of sniper weapons needs to be more accurate ### 4/5 — Such a waste potential *2025-12-30, version 0.26.2* This game could be better but it’s lame ### 4/5 — You who why you game is hard *2025-12-25* Add skip option for story and don’t make people to do npc work make companions to built or research and add tracker for product that only obtains by gathering and add auto aim lock and shoot add air vehicles add water vehicles add land mines and add future type weapon and evolved boss and finally game is to enjoy making business not scavenging resources everyday **Developer response:** Hello Survivor, We'd first like to thank you for your interest and kind comments about DARKEST DAYS. We will forward the information you mentioned to the relevant department so that they can carefully review it. Thank you for your continued support as we work towards making a more complete game. ### 5/5 — Darkest day *2025-12-24, version 0.26.2* How to restart the game over when you don’t want to play anymore but start a new one . ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — problem fix game *2026-07-31, version 0.28.6* problem luncher game ### 1/5 — Stuck on press to start screen *2026-07-30* Very bad this game is stuck in press to start screen in my MacBook Air m4. Very bad for the developers. Need to fix this so that I can play this game. ### 1/5 — No Support!!! *2026-02-26* Been over 2 weeks since I’ve submitted a ticket for support on 4 different platforms and not heard back on any of them. It’s ridiculous! You spend money and then the game messes up. Level 17 and I have zero quests. Nothing pops up. The games glitched and won’t start the mission I left off on. Will support help? No idea, they won’t even take the time to get back to you. 4 separate ways of contacting them two different times and nothing. ### 1/5 — Game isn’t starting *2026-02-14* I’ve downloaded this game & opened it but it ain’t working **Developer response:** Hello Survivor, This is DARKEST DAYS.

Seriously devs you couldn’t make it for player AND resident, I’ve spent money on this game and you are telling me I don’t have the outfits and will not be able to get them, I’m done playing this game unless something changes. This is not how a game should be made and downright stupid I want my outfits that I paid for this game is a scam, developers didn’t help much, resident outfits should also be for players as well from the start and always be available wasted time and money **Developer response:** Hello Survivor, We're very sorry to hear that you are not fully satisfied with DARKEST DAYS.

Decided to delete account today because realized how nonsense the game was. ### 1/5 — Не запускается *2025-09-28, version 0.22.3* Тупо долгая загрузка. Не качайте! ### 1/5 — Bad *2025-08-19, version 0.21.4* Stole my money wont refund, bad studio avoid ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Update *2026-08-12* Dear developers, I really enjoyed playing DARKEST DAYS and having fun. However, I don’t see any updates coming for very long time. I can see how you posting updates on other projects that looks very appealing too. Could you please not abandon this game and continue updating and adding new content into this game? Ideas: increase max level of the player and the shelter, add new type of gear, weapons, and enemies. Maybe more quests, new skins, pats, cars, or even different transitions like bike, motorcycle, etc. I hope this game will continue growing and getting more rich with different content, because there is a lot of possibilities and potential in it. THANK YOU!!! ### 5/5 — Fantastic game *2026-06-12, version 0.28.6* Amazing ### 5/5 — Important *2026-05-29* Very good game but has lagging issues while movement.Should advertise the game more because players by which no matchmaking in the co-op modes or team up modes.Should give more free items like guns,armours,recruitment,etc. Should also give fast travels to many places like undawn because there are very less places to fast travel because of it we have to use vehicles which wastes time. But a very good game if these things improve the game would be best. ### 5/5 — Fantastic *2026-04-03, version 0.28.6* Great game 10 stars from me! ### 5/5 — Nice game *2026-03-09, version 0.28.5* Lots of hours to play awesome graphics and many stuff to do ### 5/5 — Jeux *2026-03-06, version 0.28.5* Le jeux est tres bon et ça serais cool une map juste de pvp au lieu d’avoir une tite zone de combat 😅😅😅 ### 5/5 — Gut *2026-03-03* Hab lange nicht mehr gespielt mit Survival also ehrlich das gebe ich fünf Sterne, was richtig gut ist. Ich hoffe die meisten Deutschen bringen es auch raus. Bitte bringt es auf Deutsch auch aus, dass die auch auf Deutsch sprechen. ### 5/5 — probably some of the best games I ever played *2026-02-27, version 0.28.2* The graphics are stunning. Looks better than PS5 game. ### 5/5 — Jogo ótimo *2026-01-28* Acho muito bom é incrível, mas vocês podiam deixar ele off-line, pois poderíamos jogar caso ficasse sem internet, e não afetaria receber atualização não, se vocês puderem fazer isso vai ser o melhor jogo survival na Apple e play Store, já é o melhor!!!!! ### 5/5 — Great game but… *2026-01-22, version 0.27.2* It’s a great game and I loved playing it but it got a bit repetitive and I just got bored with it. It is a great mobile game tho. I still have it downloaded and ready to play --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
