Last Shelter: Survival is one zombie survival game that focuses more on the building and maintenance of the ultimate shelter than on actually venturing out to gather resources or fight zombies.

You will be playing this game as an overseer of a new post-apocalyptic colony, which must be maintained with an abundance of resources and enough of a civilian army to protect your walled city from the attack of zombies that lurk beyond the fence.

4) Grim Soul: Dark Fantasy Survival

Grim Soul is a zombie survival game made by the creators of Last Day on Earth and follows mostly the same game mechanics as the latter. However, the one thing that sets it apart is that it is a medieval-themed post-apocalyptic zombie survival game in which you will come across enchanted and mutated zombies knights.

You can build your base or castle in order to protect yourself while also venturing out to find loot. You can also craft yourself some good weapons and armour to keep going in the game.

5) Dawn of Zombies

Dawn of Zombies is one game that focuses as much on fighting zombies as it does on collecting resources and crafting weapons. This zombie survival game requires the player to rescue survivors in need and then have them hold your base down while you fight off zombies and collect resources for your survival.

The game can be quite challenging at times, but it has a wide variety of missions that you can undertake as well as new locations to loot and keep you busy for hours on an end.
