Laid-back post-apocalyptic shop sim where you build, repair, and sell guns from a trash-filled workshop while managing resources and upgrades in a zombie-free gated community.

Set in a gated, zombie-free community after society has collapsed, this game trades traditional action for a more grounded (and surprisingly laid-back) business sim, where your job is to craft and sell guns to the few remaining survivors who can afford them.

While you can dive straight into Creative Mode, which lets you build and operate without limits, the real charm lies in Story Mode. It gives context to your gritty, makeshift shop, where reputation is low, trash is everywhere, and you’re low on money. The narrative is pretty basic, but it introduces you to everything you need to know.

Surprisingly, despite the post-apocalyptic setting, there’s no actual zombie threat. You're sealed within a community district with several streets to explore, but don't expect full open-world interaction. Most buildings are inaccessible, and most NPCs are just window dressing unless they're offering quests or dialogue.

Thankfully, a compass at the top of your screen keeps navigation easy, pointing to key locations like your house and shop. Your character has basic needs, food and energy, but letting these deplete merely slows you down rather than threatens your survival. If you can’t live without speed, you can only care about sleeping in your house.

Leveling up grants you perk cards, but the system feels a little hollow. Perks offer minor stat boosts or freebies, and while there's a chance to land rare cards, it rarely feels impactful. Still, experience is everywhere: from cleaning the streets to building weapons.

The heart of the game is your gun shop, where you’ll alternate between two core services: repairing and assembling weapons. Repairs are satisfying in a tactile way: pick up a busted firearm, identify which parts are worn, and use tools to scrub and fix them. Gun-making is even more intricate. You begin with a base and attach required and optional components at specific mounting points. The mechanic is simple until your tools wear down and you need to restock.

Since you're confined to the gated area, gathering resources means hiring scavengers to explore the world beyond the walls. Each mission takes time and has a percentage-based outcome, which makes for a slow but consistent drip of supplies. Alternatively, you can trade with vendors, but margins are tight, and you’re usually better off investing in your store.

Expanding your operation starts with cleaning up trash (a surprisingly lucrative source of scrap), then buying upgrades; some purely cosmetic, others functional. You can install vending machines, tip jars, and even toilets. Eventually, you can hire staff to automate tasks, though they come with ongoing costs.

I RISE

this game is garbage, wanted to like it, but the quests are trash. you can bring ten different variations of a gun the npc requests and they still wont accept it or complete the quest. dont buy. the tutorial barely explains anything. and again all the gun making quests, not the selling of them in the store, are broke garbage refund requested
