Mini Survival is a comprehensive base-building survival game set in a post-apocalyptic world where players must contend with zombies and other dangers. The game begins with constructing and managing a shelter that includes various facilities like a restaurant, hospital, hotel, and gas stations to ensure the comfort and survival of its inhabitants. Players can recruit survivors to run these facilities and upgrade them to attract more survivors, thereby expanding and strengthening their base. The core objective is to create a prosperous and well-defended shelter capable of withstanding relentless zombie attacks.
Defense against zombies is a key aspect of gameplay. When zombie waves threaten the shelter, players have to quickly respond by building sentry towers and deploying strong companions to guard these points. Armed with guns, players can actively participate in shooting down incoming zombies, making strategic decisions about defense placements and timing to minimize damage. The game emphasizes quick reflexes and tactical defense to survive the increasingly challenging zombie onslaught.
Recruiting survivors with diverse skills adds a strategic layer to the game. Each survivor possesses unique abilities such as cooking, rescuing, or fighting, and placing them in suitable roles enhances resource gathering and combat effectiveness. Upgrading their skills makes them more powerful helpers during exploration and battles. Exploring new regions uncovers valuable resources and new challenges, but players must be prepared for encounters with dangerous zombies and potentially strong zombie bosses, requiring teamwork, proper equipment, and careful risk management.
Resource management and exploration are vital to ensuring the survival and growth of the base. Players can grow food by building farms, go fishing, or gather supplies from different regions. These resources are used to craft items, upgrade facilities, and improve equipment. The game also features cute pet companions that can be trained and taken into dangerous areas to provide additional aid. With over 80 different types of zombies and monsters, all with cartoonish appearances, the game offers a playful take on the zombie genre. Ultimately, Mini Survival challenges players to build a thriving shelter and defend it against hordes of zombies on a perilous, yet charming, final day.
