Despite me giving it a no, it's not a bad game, just doesn't pack enough value for it's price. Standard tactical combat with nothing to write home about. Not on the easy side but nothing too challenging either. Completed no damage run first try in about 7.5 hours. Apparently missed 3 plot achievements, but with such an uninspiring story, I have no motivation in going back and completing them. Maybe worth a pick up...

"Neat turn-based zombie strategy survival game" *Point : It's hard to make every team member survive, but the mission is challenging & fun. Intro Wanna Survive. This is a turn-based strategy game made by PINIX. It reminds us of Tactics genre games. The game looks rather simple, but the gameplay is more addictive and interesting than expected. Game Experience Speaking turn-based tactics games, we often think of...

I'd preface by saying this isn't a bad game but i wouldn't recommend it. First of all, I wouldn't describe Wanna Survive as a tactics game but more akin to 'strategy' like Chess or Go. There's little room for error and some of the maps spam you with enemies to the point where you have one or two choices out of a dozen that might lead to arbitrary failure after a couple of turns because one character is out of...

Game has an incredibly high difficulty curve on "normal" difficulty. It feels more like a puzzle game than a tactics game with how exact/perfect you have to make your moves. On later missions, it feels like there's no room for error, and that you *have* to use a certain tactic (i.e. barricade yourself and wait for the zombies to come to you) in order to keep everybody alive. In-game you can find coins to use to...

The game is a neat little hidden gem. With the gradual introduction as the stages go on of new characters with abilities, there is always something new to learn in order to make the dynamic of the group work better in fights. Wanna Survive has a very steep difficulty curve, in which things seem to go from 0 to 100 very fast. This isn't neccesarily a bad thing upon reflection, but it definitely left me frustrated to...

A really wonderful little game. Its rare that a developer will be so uncompromising in the execution of a great design. Every single thing in this game exists for a good reason- everything is carefully balanced and every spawn is hand placed. The result is about 8-12 hours (depending on skill level) of incredibly tight, satisfying gameplay. Its a tough game, but very, very rewarding once you puzzle out its...

I've played 1 hour and everyone is hungry. This game is more like a puzzle game than strategy game. There is very little tolerance to failure and therefore not as much choices to have.

Follow our curator page: IndieGems if you like and want to see more reviews like this one. Wanna Survive is a turn-based tactical strategy game with puzzle elements. The game is rather difficult overall, for its specific in-game mechanics. Each level presents you with certain challenging conditions to hinder your progression. Everything in this game is explained very clearly, so you will not feel lost due to lack of...

Wanna Survive is a "turn-based tactics" strategy game where you play as Survivors trying to reach this haven called "North City" while looting places for food and fighting (and avoiding) zombies in a post-apocalyptic setting. I don't like comparing/bringing other games in reviews but It's like Subset Games' Into The Breach but with zombies... although not totally up there. You start the game with one character,...

This game is fun but feels more like a puzzle game than a tactics game if that makes sense. It is semi short and the story isn't anything to write home about (to the point being somewhat nonexistent). But if you want a tactics game that has a simpler combat system and fast pace game play (unlike some tactics games) then I think this game can get fit that scratch. This game fits better as a phone game then an actual...
