They Are Coming is a zombie survival game where players must defend their base from constant zombie attacks. Every bullet, every wall, and every decision affects survival.
They Are Coming's Death Spiral
The main gameplay of They Are Coming revolves around an attractive loop:
Fight the Attack
Every night, zombies attack the base. Your task is to destroy them before destroying the barricade and infiltrating the base.
Collect Bounties
Each zombie killed brings money. This is the resource to help you survive longer.
Upgrade & Spend Wisely
Between attacks, you need to decide on a strategy:
- Weapons: Buy new guns or upgrade existing ones to increase power, fire rate, and magazine capacity. Shotguns take down multiple targets at once, snipers take down enemies from a distance.
- Barricade: Reinforce obstacles to block zombies and buy more time.
- Traps: Place mines, grenades, or other traps where zombies gather to clear out the hordes without wasting ammo.
The combination of fast-paced shooting and clever tactics is what makes They Are Coming tick. You can't just shoot continuously; you need to know when to switch guns, throw grenades, or use melee to hold your ground.
