User reviews & Ratings
Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
I love this game! It's one of the more unique builder games I've played, and what I love most about it is that it pushed me to learn a different approach. Where many builders reward (or at least don't punish) early rapid expansion and over-production, Endzone demands a careful awareness of balancing what you have against what you absolutely need. If you over extend right out of the gate, you will rapidly find yourself unable to support even the most basic needs of your colony, and the dreaded death spiral will pull you down into oblivion. I know some players have disliked Endzone for that very reason, but to me, that's what makes Endzone so fun and so replayable. It's not just an apocalypse themed version of every other builder. I had to learn the intricacies of THIS game in order for my colonies to thrive. I've really enjoyed rising to this challenge. Your colony will require a lot of micro-management. That's one of the aspects that draws me to builder games, so I really like it, but in case you don't... I also highly recommend the scenarios. Although they are not called tutorials, they do teach important concepts like how to provide water even in lengthy droughts and things like that, super helpful to know when it comes to the free-play colony.

A fun and enjoyable post-apocalyptic City Builder. I initially did not understand it when I first got it back on release so I only played for a bit and uninstalled. Lately I got into a phase where City Builders, 4x Strats, civ management and the like needed to be played so this was one of the few games I reinstalled, and after actually engaging with the mechanics and pushing myself to learn what I didn't understand prior I can finally say that I had fun. Mechanics The mechanics of this game are fairly simple but can be hard to master at first glance, especially for someone like me where logistics is ironically one of my weakest aspects in gameplay. But once you get the hang of it and understand the steps your learning process and progress starts snowballing and becomes hard to stop. The only real issue I have come across is that there are times I find difficulty in actually trying to succeed in what I am doing but that is just me blundering than the game itself. Gathering, scavenging, and crafting. Simple enough, gather resources and use said resources to craft buildings to provide settlers with jobs to use those same resources to convert them into other types of resources (ie Wood -> Coal) or construct areas where your settlers can chill to raise morale, or build places where your settlers can convert gathered resources into items for your settlers to provide good living or for their jobs(ie tools, better clothing, medicine, liqour, etc). Like I said, simple. Economy and trade. Speaking of trade, let's get to the economic aspect of this game. A majority falls under the Gathering, scavenging, and crafting above as that is pretty much all it is, a feedback loop. Managing your economy is easy once you get the hang of it but can run into complications and can be resolved immediately or just slogs your progress depending on how you can or can't handle it, for me it was not enough housing every time. For trading, you can build a Trading Post and have wasteland traders arrive in your settlement every now and then to trade with you. The bartering system with these traders is good but is really underwhelming as a standalone system, it is just an added layer to the feedback loop of managing your settlement. The only time to have one really is to get resources you yourself cannot actually get due to lack of resources (You want Hard Liqour but have no Wheat), or to sell your resources to get access to resources you don't have (Giving away some Metal and Food in exchange for Wheat seeds or a new animal for your Pasture). Game Modes Tutorial Self-explanatory, just teaches you how to play the game. For all intents and purposes, it is a good tutorial, I just found it to be a slog and did better at learning by actually playing the game. Survival Mode. The "endless" mode. You can mess around with the gameplay and map settings, deciding whether you want it to be baby easy, challenging but fun, or hardcore masochistic when you build your settlement. Despite being a sandbox, you are given some direction in the form of some missions to do that may popup or to take from the Forum to be rewarded with resources, more research options, or morale from your settlers. The endgame mission in particular is just a way to flex and showoff your settlement via screenshots as it has you get hundreds of settlers in your settlement and finally constructing some big beacon/statue. Personally I am not a fan of this beacon mission as I enjoy just vibing and managing more but hey, it gives me something to do. Challenges. Basically you can choose a scenario to build a settlement with some challenges and/or restrictions to make it challenging. Such scenarios range from constant drought with no rain, to repeated waves of raider attacks and you need to focus on defense, or some story-driven ones. I have only played with a few but they are honestly pretty fun if that is your kind of thing. The World Exploration . An IMO fun little side gig to do to have your settlers - and by proxy, you - to explore the ruined world around you. Another simple mechanic: send scouts to check certain spots of the map out, then send explorers there to thoroughly check the place out and come back with resources to your stockpile, items for your settlers, research options, or anything of use. My only cons are once you discover everything on the map then the world immediately becomes empty and loses the wonder of exploring or even surviving in it, and the fact you cannot come across other survivors to trade with; you can find a few settlers actually but they are just available to recruit for your settlement, so they are no different than the resources brought back. Interacting WITH the world. Besides exploration and the Trading Pose, the only real interaction you will get is from raiders demanding you pay tribute so they leave you alone or they just straight up attack your settlement and take some resources while damaging some buildings. If you are playing Survival with raiders off then the world is completely boring, the little lore you can find and discover about it is often through wastelanders' stories you come across and how they got there, and those stories are very brief ie, a married couple was tricked by a previous group and are now holed up in a house and are wary, or you come across a woman who left an Endzone and set up camp in a nearby store and actually got its generator working again. The only "lore" you get is your settlers discovering pre-apocalypse buildings and being awed by them ie being amazed at how a hospital is so big and how much people it could treat. But you learn nothing about the world prior or during the apocalypse: you don't know what caused it, why Endzones (Think Fallout vaults) were made in the first place other than the idea of an underground shelter, etc. Final Thoughts I love what they did here and it gives me a good balance of run and challenge with the only issues I had most of the time were me not managing my settlement well such as building too big too fast. If you enjoy logistical stuff in City Builders, and you want a post-apocalyptic aesthetic, this game is for you. This game is not without its flaws, however, as there are some aspects one can find that could use some extra depth. These elements of the game are not entirely bad, they are just features that make you go, "This is good but X would make it even better." For example, exploration is fun and rewarding but would be cool to come across some fluid events like "You come across a wastelander trying to make it as a trader, would you like to barter?" or "You come across a group of scavengers and they threaten you to give you X, will you comply, resist, or try to diffuse the situation?" It also would have been nice to find other settlements and potentially engage in trade or combat with them, the latter may seem odd but if you play Survival with raiders off then any building/resource related to defense becomes pointless so you might as well do something with them. I have only played with two DLCs, Prosperity and Halloween. Prosperity adds extra depth to settlement development such as actually making a town/city with actual buildings, while Halloween is just extra decorations for your settlement that are Halloween-themed. Out of the two, I would personally suggest getting Prosperity if you want more. Despite the less than satisfying reviews people gave it, I just bought Distant Places so I will be playing with that soon, if I decide to give it a review then it would be on its own store page, obviously. Ultimately, I give this game a final rating of 8/10 .

Played enough to see the flaws. Better memorize where your buildings are and what they are. People just show up, even when you dont want any. If the premise si you stayed under ground before finally returning, where did they all come from? You are basically building non stop, resources being abundant but being used before you need to build another building to gather. Pointless builds and the need to research how to build things or have tell your people not to loiter is a bit weak, Only paif $5.00, so it was worth buy, but only reason it gets a thumbs up. Better games out there, better balanced, better period.

After playing for almost 15hrs, this game isn't too bad as they say. The mechanics are similar to Frostpunk survival-based city building game yet it has different setting, different approach, different features and has a decent game difficullty. This game is so chill.

This game doesn't deserve mixed reviews its a fine survival city building game. I thoroughly enjoy games like this and you can play on a variety of difficulties including chillax ezmode (I assume) although I prefer harder difficulties because I like to see what happens and how fast. So far all the mixed reviews sound like skill issues and one guy hating on them for doing a kick starter for the second game which isn't uncommon or unethical for game devs to do. It's a great game I got it on massive discount and I plan on getting Endzone 2 after I plug a couple hundred hours into this. I played the Endzone 2 demo as well and it seems legit. Great series well done.
