DEAD ZONE: Idle Arsenal RPG
Coming soon
About the game
Your squad of animal soldiers fights hordes of infected on its own, even with the game closed. In this idle shooter RPG, you build the team, equip weapons, raise a bunker for survivors, and risk it all on expeditions for better loot.
Original Steam description
The city has fallen and the infected rule the streets. The last ones holding out are a squad of animal soldiers, and they keep fighting even when you're not watching.
NONSTOP COMBAT
Four heroes in the field take on the waves by themselves. With the game closed, your squad keeps earning for up to 8 hours, at 50% of the normal rate.
10 HEROES, 7 ROLES
From Sgt. Kroc the crocodile to Col. Juba the lion. Every hero has a role, two weapon types of their own, and a passive ability. Collect cards, raise each hero's grade, and choose your formation.
AN ARSENAL TO BUILD
Weapons and gear in rarities from Common to Supreme. Equip, upgrade, and store what you find.
3 ZONES, 90 WAVES, EVER-TOUGHER CYCLES
Fight through the Urban Zone, the Abandoned Port, and the Signal Jungle, facing mini-bosses and bosses along the way. Then start over in stronger cycles, from Day Zero to Apocalypse, and return to any cycle you've unlocked whenever you like.
A BUNKER FOR THE SURVIVORS
Rescue residents, dig new rooms, manage power, water, and food, and deal with the emergencies that threaten your base.
RISKY EXPEDITIONS
Leave the campaign in search of better loot: side-view wave runs, top-down open worlds, helicopter flights, and boat crossings. The higher the difficulty, the better the reward and the more you stand to lose.
WAR PLAN
A tree of 93 permanent upgrades to make your squad stronger over the long haul.
