Every satisfying choice has a cost. Every vote reshapes the world. Dead Vote is a post-apocalyptic survival game where YOUR decisions matter โ€” not just for you, but for everyone playing. Make tough calls through card-based choices and watch the world transform based on collective player votes. CARD-BASED DECISIONS Draw cards. Face dilemmas. Each card presents a choice โ€” scavenge or share, fight or flee, build or burn. Simple swipes, deep consequences. SHARED WORLD This isn't a solo experience. Every player's choices feed into a living, breathing world. When the community votes to hoard resources, everyone feels the scarcity. When they choose compassion, new paths open for all. VOTE & SHAPE REALITY Major crossroads trigger server-wide votes. Will your settlement fortify or expand? Will survivors trust the strangers at the gate? The majority decides โ€” and the minority lives with it. SEASONAL NARRATIVE Each season brings a new chapter with fresh storylines, factions, and threats. The world evolves based on how the previous season ended. No two seasons play out the same way. KEY FEATURES โ€ข Card-based gameplay โ€” intuitive swipe mechanics, no complex controls โ€ข Asynchronous multiplayer โ€” play at your pace, impact everyone's world โ€ข Meaningful choices โ€” no obvious "right answer," every option has trade-offs โ€ข Dynamic world state โ€” the game world reflects real aggregate player decisions โ€ข Seasonal content โ€” new stories, events, and mechanics each season โ€ข Faction system โ€” align with groups that share your survival philosophy โ€ข Resource management โ€” balance personal survival against community needs โ€ข Narrative depth โ€” rich lore revealed through cards, encounters, and world events THE WORLD Civilization collapsed. Small communities cling to survival in a harsh, unpredictable wasteland. You're not a hero โ€” you're just another survivor making impossible choices, one card at a time. What kind of world will you build? Download Dead Vote. Draw your first card. Cast your vote.

About

Memory Wastes

Features
Read full description

You lost your memory in a world that lost its past. Survive the wastes, scavenge supplies, fight enemies, navigate factions and recover fragments of lost knowledge to piece together a history no faction remembers the same way. Travel between settlements, scavenge food, medicine, weapons and supplies, fight mutants, machines and hostile survivors, and manage the constant dangers of sickness, scarce resources and deadly journeys. Every faction has its own beliefs, interests and version of the past. Build relationships, earn trust, trade, complete quests and decide where your loyalties lie โ€” but do not expect anyone to give you the whole truth. Knowledge is part of survival. Discover records, strange messages and fragments of lost information that reveal pieces of the world before the catastrophe. Different factions remember history differently, and the more you uncover, the more complicated the picture becomes. Build your character, improve skills and equipment, learn how enemies fight, explore dangerous locations and make each journey count. Death ends the current survivorโ€™s run, but not everything you achieved is necessarily lost. Memory Wastes brings the depth and systems of a post-apocalyptic survival RPG to mobile without reducing the experience to a simplified mobile format. Survive the wastes. Recover what was forgotten. Decide what the past means when nobody remembers it the same way.
