Official Steam store asset telemetry for Survival Log.

Survival Log is a post-apocalyptic hoarding simulation game where players have 10 hours to scavenge supplies, build a fortified shelter, and defend against rising zombie hordes.

The Ten-Hour Scavenging Countdown

  • Forewarned by a prophetic vision of disaster, players face a strict 10 hours countdown before zombies arrive.
  • Scavengers scour supermarkets, hardware shops, and farmers' markets to stockpile critical sustenance.
  • The Loot Spotter system tracks collected resources in real time to reveal inventory deficits.
  • Survivors balance spending scarce currency on canned rations versus structural reinforcement lumber and fuel.

Stronghold Construction and Power Infrastructure

  • Homeowners renovate ordinary domestic quarters into an apocalypse-proof multi-story fortress.
  • Safe houses expand floor by floor to accommodate living quarters, storage rooms, and indoor greenhouses.
  • Operating electrical utilities requires balancing diesel generators, manual dynamos, and rooftop solar arrays.
  • Maintaining survivor sanity demands monitoring physical stamina alongside emotional morale and nutrition.

Horde Defense and Environmental Perils

  • When the outbreak begins, defensive perimeters face assaults from relentless zombie hordes.
  • Builders deploy physical barriers and defensive traps to protect entryways from being overrun.
  • Hazardous environmental conditions including power blackouts, torrential rain, and freezing cold strain resources.
  • Expeditions into abandoned schools and urban ruins offer high-grade components amid lurking dangers.

Community Trading and Rebirth

  • Remote drone systems enable autonomous trading networks with distant survivor enclaves.
  • Players rescue trapped neighborhood survivors to rebuild a cooperative community enclave.
  • Starting backgrounds such as a student, worker, or warehouse clerk grant distinct starting attributes.
  • Defeat triggers a rebirth loop where retained past memories empower successive survival attempts.
