## What is The Bunker?

The world ended. Your bunker didn't.

Dig deeper, keep the power on, and hold the line against the endless dead, one generation at a time. THE BUNKER is two games in one: a cozy-grim base-building sim and a white-knuckle top-down zombie shooter, bound together by the people you're trying to keep alive.

▸ BUILD A BUNKER THAT LASTS
Carve out two dozen rooms: generators, farms, water, workshops, kennels, labs , and staff them with survivors. Every room has a job, and everything runs on power. Balance food, water, fuel, and morale, or watch it all come apart. Your bunker keeps working while you're away.

▸ FIGHT FOR EVERY RUN
Head topside into round-based, twin-stick survival. Push deeper for better loot, craft wonder weapons, drink perks, roll the mystery box, and take a loyal dog into the fight. Bank what you grab — or lose it when you go down.

▸ PEOPLE WORTH PROTECTING
Your survivors aren't just stats. They work, pair up, raise kids, and grow old. Rescue strays, breed them, and bring them along. Everyone keeps a lifetime record — zombies slain, children raised, days survived — and earns titles like Veteran, Parent, and Top Dog.

▸ A FAMILY TREE THAT REMEMBERS
Every birth is recorded forever. Trace a fifth-generation survivor all the way back to the founders — the living and the long-dead, no one forgotten. Then climb the Hall of Fame for kills, bloodlines, and tenure.

▸ RECRUIT RARE SPECIALISTS
One-of-a-kind experts turn up at your door — a medic, a gunsmith, a houndmaster — each with a perk that changes how you play.

▸ UNCOVER WHAT HAPPENED
Something was in the water. Hidden across the maps is a chain of secrets — clues, wonder weapons, story bosses, and found-footage cinematics — that slowly reveals how the world really ended, and what's still buried beneath it.

No forced timers. Just your bunker, your people, and the dark outside.

Tomorrow, guaranteed.

### 5/5 — It’s ok

*2026-08-15*

It’s a fun game but there are either too many bugs or the game makes no sense. First of all, your characters die too quickly. When you pass 4-6 real time hours a couple of your characters have died. Two of my characters had a child and I had to wait 24 hours for it to grow up real time but their age is 46 years old at the moment. That makes no sense at all. Another thing when you buy the specialist they died just the same so I just wasted real money on a character that will die within a few hours. Also, almost all the characters look alike and have the same last names. Makes it seem unauthentic.  It says minor bug fixes when I just downloaded the update now but that’s all it says it won’t tell me specifically what those fixes are. Overall the game is quite fun tbh but it needs some more work done to make it more enjoyable.
