6 itemsAbout the Game
Dreadhaven: The Last Colony is a minimalist turn-based city-building strategy game set in a hostile, post-apocalyptic world overrun by zombies. Your mission is to expand, fortify, and withstand relentless waves of zombies.
Survive, Expand, Endure
Each day, you are given a limited number of actions to carefully construct buildings, explore, gather resources, and reinforce your defenses. Every decision matters—do you invest in food production or do you prioritize settings up your defenses to prepare for the next wave?
Turn-Based Strategy with a Survival Twist
Unlike traditional city-builders, Dreadhaven is turn-based, requiring careful planning. Each turn, you must decide how to best use your scarce actions:
✔ Build structures to expand your colony’s capabilities.
✔ Gather resources to maintain production and sustain survivors.
✔ Reinforce defenses to withstand the inevitable attacks.
A Relentless Onslaught
Zombies numbers are unyielding. Every few days, an incoming horde will test your defenses. If they break through, it’s game over. You must prepare, adapt, and make each turn count.
Key Features:
🛠 Turn-based city-building – Make the most of each action in a limited timeframe.
🏰 Defensive strategy – No army, just walls, turrets, traps, and smart planning.
🌎 Varied environments – Each mission takes place in unique, hostile locations.
🔬 Tech progression – Unlock stronger buildings and defenses to improve survival chances.
Are you ready to rebuild civilization, one battle at a time?
