Raise the dead and build a horde that never stops growing. Undead Forever is a social zombie RPG made for quick check-ins and long rivalries: every mission, fight and payout adds to a monster that is yours forever. WAR FOR THE DEAD CITY Eight districts, eight undead factions, one weekly Turning. Missions, boss hits and stronghold breaches spread your clan's Infestation. Beat the garrison and your clan takes the district: your crest flies over it, its missions pay +10% Flesh, and its tribute fills your War Chest. SURVIVE SIEGE NIGHTS Hold a district and the Hunger comes for it. The city's dead read your clan's strength and send a horde to match. Raise Bone Walls, set Lures as traps, hire ghoul packs and Hold the Line. Break the siege for CBR, LP and the Wallwarden title, or watch the dead take your district back. HUNT REAL PLAYERS Every rival on the Fight board is a real zombie or one of hundreds of clearly labeled NPCs across ten factions. Chain kill streaks through 13 tiers, from STREAK to UNDEAD FOREVER. Post bounties on the Hit List, strike back at whoever hit you, and watch a repeat rival become your Nemesis. MARCH THE DEAD ROAD Six-stop campaigns through a ruined city. Choose how your horde crosses each stop, expose NPC commanders and storm their Strongholds for vaults of Flesh, XP, Mutation Points and graft keys. TAKE DOWN WORLD BOSSES The Morgue Titan, the Subway Broodmother, the Megawarren Colossus and the seasonal Crimson Butcher shrug off whole hordes. Everyone who draws blood earns the kill and a loot roll. PLAY THE DEAD EXCHANGE Trade shares in eight undead companies with the Flesh you earn. Prices move every five minutes with city news and every player's orders, and dividends reward those who hold. BUILD YOUR MONSTER Choose your Origin (Hunter, Rotborn or Broodmind), climb the Mutation grid, assemble your Horde Loadout, chain Frenzy missions up to APOCALYPSE, set Lures that pay out Flesh, and grow your fortune in the Flesh Bank. RULE WITH YOUR CLAN Forge a crest from painted emblems, trims, colours and patterns. Win the weekly clan battle, outfight rival clans, spend your War Chest in the Armory, and see every week's winners carved into the Hall of Champions. EVERY DAY COUNTS Five Daily Contracts pay LP, the weekly Streaks podium pays its top killers, and the Battle Pass adds free refills every day and skill points every week. A LIVING UNDEAD WORLD Talk with every zombie in World Chat, leave your mark on rivals' Walls, send ideas and bug reports to the Survivor's Council (confirmed bugs earn LP bounties), and chase 30 Game Center achievements and 4 leaderboards. BRING YOUR FRIENDS Share your invite link. Friends get a Flesh bonus, and you earn 77 LP for every friend who survives their First Night. Play instantly as a guest, then save your horde with email or Game Center whenever you like. Raise the dead. Hold the line. Build forever.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Undead Forever at none against Swarm Game's shown. Undead Forever also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Swarm Game's advantage is ratings volume (49 vs 4) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
