If you've been craving some zombie-slaying, apocalypse-surviving action, you'll be thrilled to know that Darkest Days is now available on iOS and Android. This open-world survival action shooter combines the best elements of top releases in the genre, making it accessible right at your fingertips.
It's easy to see where Darkest Days draws its inspiration from as you find yourself thrust into a zombie-infested world, tasked with fending for survival. You'll need to scavenge for equipment and weapons, forge alliances or rivalries, and establish a base to withstand the relentless onslaught of the ravenous dead.
Numerous games have attempted to replicate the intense atmosphere of zombie films, such as Project Zomboid, Seven Days to Die, and State of Decay. Darkest Days follows suit, adopting many of the mechanics that have made these titles so beloved, for better or for worse.
Rule #1: Cardio
Darkest Days offers a refreshing departure from the typical zombie survival games on mobile. While tower defense and strategy games have long dominated this genre on mobile platforms, Darkest Days introduces a familiar yet distinctive third-person shooting and survival experience. Players can dive into both single and multiplayer modes, utilize vehicles, and confront zombies across diverse biomes starting from Sandy Creek.
While it remains to be seen whether Darkest Days will distinguish itself from its predecessors, it's clear that we haven't yet seen something quite like it make a significant impact on mobile gaming. With its more intimate survival gameplay, Darkest Days has the potential to become a fan favorite over time.
