About Dread Dawn
Dread Dawn is an open-world zombie survival sandbox set in a city quarantined after an unknown virus outbreak. You play as a student who misses the evacuation convoy and is left behind in the city. As the outbreak unfolds, you experience the calm beforehand and the city's collapse through story-driven cutscenes.
The quarantined city
The modern metropolis has public facilities including hospitals, subway stations, prisons and schools. You stay at a school with other survivors, defend your camp and work to survive.
Defend and provide
You collect materials to build up the camp's defenses, while watching for zombies that attack when your attention slips. You can use spare areas to grow food or raise chickens for eggs. When other food sources are unavailable, these skills help sustain the camp; surplus crops can also be traded with other survivors.
