Survivalist: Invisible Strain is an open-world colony-building sim set in the zombie apocalypse, often compared to State of Decay, Project Zomboid, Rimworld, Kenshi, or "The Sims but with zombies". It focuses on characters and relationships as well as survival.
All living characters in the world have names and personalities. They remember your actions, and their memories affect their mood and their opinion of you. They have their own lives: gossiping, eating, sleeping, keeping warm, working and fighting. Some will give you quests; it's up to you how or whether to complete them. Use negotiation, friendship, violence, stealth or trickery to achieve your objectives!
You can recruit other survivors by making them like you, or respect you, or fear you. As you recruit followers they'll need a place to sleep, a steady food source, a fire to keep warm, and walls to keep out enemies. You'll need to manage their morale and relationships; sometimes they'll get depressed, or start fighting each other. Sometimes they'll kiss and make up. Sometimes they'll want to hang out with you, or chat you up.
You can chop down trees, mine rocks, and look for other resources in the abandoned towns dotted around the map. Set traps for enemies, or rabbits. Hunt deer, keep chickens, grow crops, or take more desperate measures if you're really hungry! Assign your community members roles such as Farmer, Chef, Arrow Crafter, etc. Over time you can build a well-defended, self-sufficient settlement that even produces its own bullets.
