Survive in Your Own City
Infection Free Zone is an independent survival strategy game set in a collapsing world. Jutsu Games' production combines a classic survival formula with strategy and city-builder elements, along with a unique map mechanic based on real-world locations.
Players take command of a group of survivors. By day, they need to manage shelter, resources, and their people; by night, they defend against hordes of the infected.
Thanks to data pulled from OpenStreetMap, players can pick any town or city in the world and then play on a real map. Notably, individual buildings such as shops, hospitals, and police stations keep their actual location
Gameplay covers building and managing an infection-free zone, where buildings can be converted into shelters, warehouses, farms, power plants, factories, and research centers. Players must raise walls and watchtowers, manage survivors, and form squads for combat and scavenging. Resource and production management also play an important role in Infection Free Zone, with the goal of achieving self-sufficiency.
Over the course of this post-apocalyptic adventure, players will also encounter other groups of survivors. Some will be hostile, but others will want to trade with them or even join them.
