State of Decay Year One Survival Edition — is one of many games dedicated to the zombie apocalypse. However, this project is truly unique. Note that it's a survival horror game. No super shooters, no super action. Although you'll certainly have to defend yourself against zombies with weapons, otherwise it's a disaster. Survivors will also have to solve many important tasks beyond just learning how to handle weapons. The game was developed by Undead Labs and published by Microsoft in 2013. The title translates as "Rotting State," and that's telling. What happened in this state is unknown, but it's now overrun by the undead, eager to turn otherwise normal people into themselves. Or simply kill them. In short, the state is in complete decline, in the process of self-destruction, so to speak. I wonder what the US government thinks about this? State of Decay gameplay features: Unlike most games of this genre, in State of Decay, players control not just one character, but an entire group. As already noted, this project is neither a shooter nor an action game. It's safe to call it a zombie survival simulator. A group of uninfected people, led by the player, must do everything possible to survive. First, they must set up a camp and defend it with watchtowers. Within the protected area, players can plant a vegetable garden, equip a kitchen, a workshop, an infirmary, a gym, and even a library. Each character can be given a specialization, developing unique qualities, not necessarily positive ones. This close-knit, diverse group will have to defend themselves against bloodthirsty zombies. Incidentally, other groups of survivors live in the open world. You can establish friendly relationships with them, offer mutual assistance, and trade. You'll have to search for food, ammunition, and other useful items in abandoned buildings. There are a lot of zombies there... and sometimes it's better to remain stealthy to pull off a successful operation. Yes, State of Decay does have stealth elements. The gameplay is incredibly rich and engaging, so gamers are eager to download the torrent. State of Decay Year One Survival Edition It's not surprising at all.
