Story

Survival Machine is your precious home. You can build on top of this ever-moving base and adapt it to your needs. An upgraded engine will consume less fuel but a new shiny cannon would smash some zombies into pieces… it’s up to you to decide! Discovering the world and various landscapes: forests, deserts, tundra… Survival Machine constantly drives forward through all kinds of environments and lets you just jump off of it whenever you want to start your own small expeditions. Finding new rare resources, items, fighting out a zombie here and there, or discovering a history of this world! Zombies will surely try to invade your machine during the night. It’s because they are stronger then. The trick is to prepare yourself for their attacks. Planning your defenses, using special stationary weapons, and building walls in strategic places will make it easier to survive.
