If you've been craving some intense zombie-slaying and apocalypse-surviving action, then you'll be thrilled to know that Darkest Days is now available on both iOS and Android. This open-world survival action shooter combines the best elements from top releases in the genre, all accessible right from your mobile device.
It's easy to see where Darkest Days draws its inspiration, as you're thrust into a zombie-infested world and must fend for yourself. You'll scavenge for essential equipment and weapons, forge alliances (or rivalries), and build a base to withstand the onslaught of the ravenous dead.
Numerous games have attempted to capture the essence of zombie films, such as Project Zomboid, Seven Days to Die, and State of Decay. Darkest Days follows suit, incorporating many of the mechanics that made these titles popular, for better or for worse.
**Rule #1: Cardio** - Darkest Days breaks the mold of typical mobile zombie survival games. While tower defense and strategy games have dominated this genre on mobile platforms, Darkest Days offers a refreshing blend of third-person shooting and survival. Dive into both single-player and multiplayer modes, explore a variety of biomes, drive vehicles, and venture out from your starting point at Sandy Creek.
Whether Darkest Days will distinguish itself from its predecessors remains to be seen, but it's clear that we haven't yet seen a game quite like this make a significant impact on mobile. With its more intimate survival gameplay, Darkest Days has the potential to become a fan favorite in the long run.
