With just seven days until a horde of ferocious zombies attacks, your goal really is survival.
Survival isnt as simple as just meeting needs, though.
Itsactualsurvival, an escape from almost certain death that comes with a horde on the horizon.
Theyre coming regardless and will ensure that nowhere feels safe.
Boarding up a house?
Theyll storm right through.
Building a base on stilts so that they cant climb up?
Theyll knock those stilts down, causing the physics system to send your base crashing to the ground.
That means you dont have time to settle down, grow some crops, and start automating production.
If you make it through, then the doomsday clock begins again, ticking towards something even worse.
The increasing difficulty of each horde breaks away any tedium that the loop might otherwise carry.
7 Days to Die doesnt tear up the rulebook entirely.
Youre forced to play faster, settling in random ruins that dont feel like home.
It takes away the luxury of time, creating a survival experience thats both familiar and unique.
