Short description · 298 / 300The zombies ended the world. You're going to switch it back on. Ardem is an open-world zombie survival game in an immersive handcrafted world. Restore electricity, rebuild vehicles, construct your base, and permanently reshape the world. Solo, co-op, or on up-to-64-player PvE, PvP, and RP servers.
First sentence never names the genre. It opens: "The zombies ended the world."
A rewritten draft built from your own words is in the full report.
