### 3/5 — Too many zombies

*2026-06-25, version 3.0.5*

I don’t want a bunch of hoard zombie attacks EVERY-TIME I go to a location on the map. Even after the fight you usually won’t get any supplies from it, maybe some food and water. Healing items are not easy to find so it makes it worse if you try to fight through every hoard to try and get supplies.

### 4/5 — Please don’t let this game die out!

*2024-07-12, version 3.0.5*

This is one of my favorite games, devs, please keep updating this game. I’m confident that most players would love to dive back in for $2.99 with a new game with consistent updates and working tools, auto safe house item sorting, etc. this game was revolutionary in so many ways, best real world map, best storytelling, you’re missing out on a lot of potential here. Contact me if you ever need advice with a new project I’ve beta tested games for years (HOI4 mods and World Warfare & Economics) I also have skills in creative writing.

### 3/5 — Was a great game

*2024-02-16, version 3.0.5*

It was a great game, played it all the time, especially when going to new locations to loot new areas. However after a while of not playing, I attempted to load back onto game and it repeatedly told me login failed. I attempted to change password multiple times to see if this was the cause, but after changing passwords it still refused to login. I was at such a high level of survivors and resources the thought of having to start from scratch is a pain!

### 2/5 — I prefer the offline one

*2023-11-17, version 3.0.5*

The offline version worked better this one you can’t do anything

### 4/5 — Great game that was ahead of its time

*2023-03-21, version 3.0.5*

This game was amazing when it first came out. It was basically that’s times Pokémon go

### 3/5 — Long Time Player

*2022-12-08, version 3.0.5*

I’ve been playing this game on and off since I was 15, so about 7 years now. I’ve gone through countless characters and accounts since then and I’ve found two things extremely frustrating. The current, “unable to login” glitch (there goes about a 2 year old character) and that you’re unable to restore purchases made? That’s absurd. Great game otherwise, wouldn’t have played it this long if I didn’t fall in love with it.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-11-06, version 3.0.5*

A good 9.5/10

### 5/5 — I love this game so much BUT…

*2022-07-05, version 3.0.5*

The game is abandoned by its developers. I wonder if it’ll have any other updates or something. 
Please, don’t abandon the game! 
I really enjoy the whole atmosphere and all.

### 5/5 — Update game

*2022-05-29, version 3.0.5*

This was a great game and still could be if updated with new content and story

### 5/5 — update the game

*2022-05-27, version 3.0.5*

add new map and challenge

### 5/5 — It’s pretty good

*2021-12-23, version 3.0.5*

Ok I’m just gonna get it out this game has some flaws like how you know if something does a lot of damage or if you have everything to craft something but overall it’s a good game it’s just sad they haven’t updated it in a while because there could have been so much more

### 5/5 — Survivor Z moving forward

*2021-12-22, version 3.0.5*

Good touch-ups and maintenance.

### 5/5 — Hurry Up！ Updates！

*2021-10-04, version 3.0.5*

I have been playing for over many many years and this brilliant game really needs a major update! At least an update to optimise the screen for the latest iOS! 
It would be such a shame and a great loss to see a wonderful game dooms like this, no major update, no new storyline, no screen optimisation… Vanish like this? 
NO!
Please please get yourself up, game creator, and bring us more surprise and fun! You are born for this! Come on!

### 1/5 — Wtf

*2026-04-20, version 3.0.5*

I played the original that was released 15+ years ago. Now you need my email and location? Wtf

### 1/5 — The game

*2024-02-18, version 3.0.5*

The game is very fun but you can't even see what you are doing.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2023-09-04, version 3.0.5*

Game won’t let you login even if you reset your password. Have been a player for around ten years, can’t believe it’s come to this. Reached out to customer service to no avail in the past.

### 1/5 — Need fixing login!!

*2022-09-02, version 3.0.5*

I used to play hours of this game and now I can’t login anymore! It keeps giving me login error

### 1/5 — 全然出来ない

*2022-05-31, version 3.0.5*

アドレス打ち込みたくても英語が出てこないし、何度パスワード打ち込んでもエラーになる。 全然入れない

多分バージョン上げてないよね？

### 1/5 — Bha

*2021-08-07, version 3.0.5*

Nessuno ci gioca, se perdi la paw del profilo neanche riesci a recuperarla, nulla è scritto chiaramente... gioco lasciato al caso, inutile aggiungere altro

### 1/5 — This game is trash

*2018-10-05, version 3.0.1*

The combat system is poorly executed you can go from killing 30 zombies to being mauled by one after you've shot it several times.
The perma death system is perfect for a zombie game if the combat was not so poorly balanced or when the game continues to shove pay for items down your throats when ur just going to lose them upon death.
You can be stuck on one event for days because if you don't have the item to finish it your stuck there until you do and unable to do other missions to get said item.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me create profile

*2018-07-28, version 3.0.1*

I just got the game and it seems really, really cool, the only thing is that when I try to create my profile, i enter the email and pass and it still won’t create me a profile!! Super frustrating!!! 😡

### 1/5 — WTH FIX THIS

*2018-07-24, version 3.0.1*

I had an old account that I tried signing into and it didnt work so i just tried making a new account and nothing works! It wont let me make an account even with a different valad email. Wth and that login trouble thing just shows a page that says page ok. Cmon guys i just want to play the game!

### 1/5 — Why we need to register first before playing the game?

*2018-07-24, version 3.0.1*

the problem is, I can't register.

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing!

*2026-06-26, version 3.0.5*

This game is being remade and I’ll try to update this post when it comes out but this game has been adored since it came out.
I love the game, so many memories and played since childhood.

Not to mention the community, one of the best most supportive and kind communities I have ever seen!
Join their discord, if you need a link Lmk.

Highly recommend this game.
Trust me, if you like text based games and zombies. You’ll love it!
Have a wonderful day~
:)

### 5/5 — Must have

*2026-01-14, version 3.0.5*

Great game please support the developer anyway you can.

### 5/5 — AMC “The Walking Dead” 💎

*2025-10-28, version 3.0.5*

I highly recommend this business! Their customer service is second to none. The product quality is consistently outstanding, exceeding my expectations everytime. I was completely impressed with their professionalism. Pricing is fair and transparent. Definitely value for money! Efficiency and punctuality are hallmarks of their service! 💝

Playin’ this game, while watching TWD, adds a tint of what it means to be a diehard, hardcore fan! How long can u survive in a real-life, post-apocalyptic zombie-apocalypse? This—on iPhone—and Steam’s “Infestation: The New Z” on Windows are the ONLY free games to test that!! ☠️☠️🔥🔥😍

### 5/5 — W game

*2025-04-06, version 3.0.5*

Still waiting for an update… 🙏🏼

### 5/5 — Stuck

*2024-12-03, version 3.0.5*

I love this game, but I’m stuck. I just downloaded the game a few days ago. I started playing and fell in love with the whole “end of the world” scenario. But my character has just come out of her bunker and I’m stuck. I’ve tried everything. My only option is fortified van, or keep searching. I’ve tried both but nothing happens. The game won’t do anything. I messaged a few players for help but got no response. So, I don’t know what to do at this point.

### 5/5 — Most underrated game ever?

*2024-08-07, version 3.0.5*

It’s gotta be one of the best open world explorer games ever made with a twist of random story’s every so often! Only down side is you’ll never have enough story’s to play through and the devs have just about given up on the game… crafting mercenaries is bugged 🥲(don’t let the game go devs we love you make a huge comeback)🙏

### 5/5 — Good game dead dev?

*2024-07-22, version 3.0.5*

I remember playing these games back in 2021 but since covid there has been no updates and one of the games has been taken down for unknown reasons with zero new content besides a terrible story game that makes you pay for something every three seconds Im curious as to what happened to the dev has he abandoned these games or simply busy?

### 5/5 — Great game…one issue

*2024-01-05, version 3.0.5*

Love the game. It’s one of those games you play for hours, forget about it, then find it and play for hours again. Only issue is when you move IRL and lose everything from your safe house. I wish there was a way to get purchases back.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2023-05-07, version 3.0.5*

Been playing for years I wish there would be more stories coming even if its only one per year, yet this app brought so much joi to my childhood and life in general.

### 5/5 — HELP

*2022-12-23, version 3.0.5*

I absolutely love this game and I spent money on it a couple days ago I bout one or two of the content pack along with the riot gear lv 2 and also the last swat one you can but. But I died and the items that I paid real money for are lost with the rest of my inventory. I want a refund on my items so that I can get paid to peacefully playing this game
