Okay, so the sorta boyfriend got a Steam Box for Hanukkah, and now has access to a huge litany of games that are on PC. Meaning that I can finally have a reason to figure out if a certain kind of game exists.

What I'm looking for is a zombie survival game that's kinda like the Sims game, something along the lines of Zoo Tycoon gameplay wise, where you have to design a safezone/compound to keep zombies away, keep your survivors alive and happy, send them out for supplies and/or train them to make things, deciding whether or not to let other survivors into your safezone/compound, defend against hordes, etc.

The closest I've played to this sort of game is State of Decay, and while I had fun with it, I really wished for more control over what the survivors did and more customization over the safezone/compound.

Sort of like <link=http://www.kongregate.com/games/sarahnorthway/rebuild-2>Rebuild & Rebuild 2?

I can't think of any AAA, indie or other kind of game other than those 2 really. Sorry.

If you don't mind lack of the zombie part, then This War of Mine is exactly what you're looking for.

Zafehouse Diaries sort of sounds like that, but it's pretty much entirely text based. I quite like it, but I can see the problem of having no visual feedback.

Other than that...Project Zomboid sounds similar. There's a demo on Steam.

Oh!? I didn't know about that one, thanks. That sounds exactly what Soren7550 is after then.
