I often see mention of zombies on here and i thought this would be of interest.

Here's a snippet:

The Zombie Apocalypse is the new World War II, and has been for a while now when it comes to games. But most, if not all zombie games to date have mostly focused on just killing them in droves. Few have actually thought about surviving in a world full of shambling undead. Until Dead State, that is.

It looks good though i would have preferred it in first person. It would be good if it was online as well but it didn't really mention anything.

EDIT: i don't think online would work really, it's turn based.

...the player manages a local shelter while going out to find food and supplies, gather townsfolk, and even make allies (or enemies) out of other groups of survivors....

Kinda sounds like those flash games. So far it sounds kinda meh though. I've never been a fan of "survival" modes in games (no end, just see how long you can last), so if that is what this ends up being, I'll probably pass. Guess I'll just have to wait for more info to come out.
