Projet Zomboid

Project Zomboid is an open-ended zombie-infested sandbox. It asks one simple question – how will you die?

In the towns of Muldraugh and West Point, survivors must loot houses, build defenses, and do their utmost to delay their inevitable death day by day. No help is coming – their continued survival relies on their own cunning, luck, and ability to evade a relentless horde.
