About this game

Interactive Zombie Chat Game (Text Adventure)

DEAD CITY is an incredibly thrilling, interactive chat story which cannot be told without your help. For Sam, you are the only contact outside of the evacuated area. Can YOU save Sam?

Live up to the trust placed in you and guide Sam through the post-apocalyptic chat text adventure game in real-time. Make your choices carefully, as they will have severe consequences on the story of the game.

How to play the text based adventure

DEAD CITY's interface is based on a chat messenger app (similar to Telltale) representing your connection to Sam.
It is neither necessary to answer all messages immediately nor to have the game open permanently.You will be notified about new events even if the App is closed and you can decide yourself how things should be run.

Sam needs the help of a good friend. Without you Sam will not survive the next days💥 !

Excuse me - I would like the next installment please 😁 Honestly, been looking for a game like this for ages but it normally falls under zombie category so I stupidly ignored it. Gosh, I loved it so much and I'm mad at myself for not downloading it sooner! Off to buy the full version because it 100% deserves it! Oh yeah, so the game (text based, obviously), timings are realistic, character is amazing (fallen in love a bit) and the plot is awesome too!

I actually really enjoyed the game for what it was. Its short yes, maybe an hour at most of gameplay. Some errors here and there with grammar but not a huge deal breaker. I'd have liked to have some more story in the sense of having a more emotional connection towards the character and maybe even a slower story pace but all in all I did enjoy it and really would love a second game possibly to continue on the story? I'd love to know what happened afterwards.

The game has a good premise, but the choices to be made were few and far between, after every other choice was an advert or long wait, which really bought me out of the whole experience thus I bought the app to be able to enjoy it fully, after that though it was less than 30 minutes play time and the end was rather lack luster, but the worst part is, now I cannot restart the game to find the other ending it has entirely crashed, I've paid for a game I can't play?
