Sheltered

A party of several characters

You guide a family through the apocalypse, managing food, water, gear and scavenging runs from inside your bunker. Every call on resources and risk can decide who lives or dies.

Fallout Shelter

A party of several characters

As overseer of a Vault-Tec bunker, you expand rooms, assign dwellers to jobs and send them into the Wasteland. You keep resources balanced, all wrapped in the charming, darkly humorous cartoon style of the Fallout series.

Kunkun Defender 2

Shooting and gunplay

You fight off zombie waves in a third-person shooter blended with tower defense, holding out in virus-infested zones until the extraction helicopter arrives.

Dead Ground

Shooting and gunplay

You defend your base in a blend of tower defense and shooter action while scavenging scrap and water. Randomly generated guns, skills and augments make every run different.

Atom Zombie Smasher

Tactical depth

In the zombie apocalypse you command mercenary squads and support like artillery and helicopters, evacuating survivors in short, frantic real-time missions. The striking retro look and dry humor give the tricky tactics a distinct flavor.

Atomicrops

Shooting and gunplay

A fast twin-stick roguelite where you run the last farm of the post-apocalypse, growing mutant crops, fending off bandits and even wooing a spouse. Juggling farming chores, a ticking clock and shootouts keeps every run frantic and varied.

They Are Billions

Tactical depth

A punishing steampunk real-time strategy game where you build colonies and fortify them with walls, towers and troops against massive zombie hordes. One breach can doom everything, so careful planning matters above all.

60 Seconds!

Post-apocalyptic setting

You get just 60 seconds to grab supplies and family members before a nuclear strike, then you must survive in the shelter through tough choices and scarce resources. Dark humor and randomized events make every run different.

Infectonator 3: Apocalypse

Strong character progression

You play the plague itself, unleashing a virus and infecting humanity while unlocking ever stranger zombie types. It's a campy, humorous pixel-art arcade sim with the player as the villain.
