Help the stickman protagonist endure everything the zombie apocalypse throws at him in Hyper Survive — a thrilling base-building isometric RPG. Chop wood, scavenge for metal scraps, process the raw materials, save the NPC survivors, and annihilate the brain-eaters who dare to set foot near your camp!

The zombies lurking around look menacing, but your character is more than capable of dealing with them using melee and ranged weapons. Upon completing quests, you’ll unlock new areas of the map and recruit additional survivors to aid the survival efforts. Eventually, once the base is fully functional, you’ll get a hold of a vehicle and move to another territory to give the remaining scattered stickmen a helping hand in these dire times!

How to play Hyper Survive

The concise in-game tooltips do a great job of introducing you to the gameplay mechanics. Completing the quests in an orderly manner is the optimal way to progress through the game, but this should by no means dissuade you from experimenting and playing the game at your own pace.

When the character approaches the object of interest, it usually does the required action automatically, so you really only have to worry about the movement and colony management. You can stash the excess resources onto the conveyor belts and pick them up when required at the other side of the production lines, neatly marked with arrows.

What are the controls for Hyper Survive?

Subjectively, though, playing it felt much more natural on a touchscreen device. Tap or click anywhere on the screen, then hold and drag to move the stickman protagonist around the map with a virtual joystick button.
