by Riley Apr 25,2025

If you've been eagerly awaiting some intense zombie-slaying and apocalypse-surviving action, you'll be thrilled to learn that **Darkest Days** is now available on both iOS and Android. This open-world survival action shooter encapsulates the essence of top genre releases, all conveniently accessible on your mobile device.

It's clear where **Darkest Days** finds its inspiration: you're thrust into a world teeming with zombies, tasked with fending for yourself. Scavenging for equipment and weapons, forming alliances (or rivalries), and building a base to withstand the relentless onslaught of the undead are key to your survival.

Numerous games have attempted to replicate the thrilling atmosphere of zombie films, such as **Project Zomboid**, **Seven Days to Die**, and **State of Decay**. **Darkest Days** follows suit, integrating many of the beloved mechanics from these titles, striving to capture their appeal on mobile platforms.

Darkest Days Gameplay

**Rule #1: Cardio** - **Darkest Days** breaks the mold of typical mobile zombie survival games. While tower defense and strategy games have often dominated this genre on mobile, **Darkest Days** introduces a refreshing mix of third-person shooting and survival gameplay. Dive into both single-player and multiplayer modes, commandeer vehicles, and battle zombies across diverse biomes, starting from your initial location at Sandy Creek.

Whether **Darkest Days** will distinguish itself from its predecessors remains to be seen, but it's evident that mobile gaming has yet to fully embrace such an experience. With its more intimate survival gameplay, **Darkest Days** has the potential to become a long-term favorite among fans.

If your appetite for facing those ravenous, brain-hungry undead extends beyond **Darkest Days**, be sure to explore our curated lists of the top 20+ zombie-themed games available on iOS and Android!
