Description
UNRELEASED GAME – UNAVAILABLE
This game has officially been announced by the publisher or developer, and remains in development. Therefore, some of the game information may change in the future. Until this game is released, please do not submit images for it, nor add new releases. Press Kits are an exception.
In Urban Strife you lead a team of makeshift, slightly deranged rangers in an effort to keep the small community of Urban alive, amidst a zombie pandemic. With what’s left of human civilization divided into factions fighting over the scraps, you will need to broker alliances and fight factions wars, fortify and rebuild your community and forge a future against the ever-present threat of the zombie horde.Proceed with care and stealth and eliminate your targets one by one or blast away with shotguns and machine guns that mow entire hordes of zombies at once. Lure unsuspecting AI enemies into noise traps and knock them out cold from the shadows. Blow their cover with explosives and Molotovs, snipe them silently with silenced pistols and crossbows or get your hands on rare .50 BMG anti-material rifle and knock their door (and half the wall) down.

Quotes (from this video)
- I like the overall vibe of it, the Fallout type of environment here.
- The biggest thing, however, for me that I enjoy is the detail of the combat.
- The grittiness of combat and you're crafting weapons and you've got a bunch of different weapon types, you've got types, stealth, you've got of overwatch, all of the things that you would expect to see in a good tactical combat game are here in this game.

Quotes (from this video)
- there's so much good turn-based tactical combat in this game
- I think if you are a fan of games like Fallout or Jagged Alliance 2 uh that just have some really granular turn-based combat and a system and a role playing game system that flesh out the world as well as crafting and Base building that is here there's just a lot to like
- I love the old school feel to it
- really impressed with this one it's got such an old school feel to it's a small team it's got kind of an indie development feel to this one
- I love this kind of tactical combat and I feel like this is gritty with the stuff that blows up and breaks and all the crafting and the different character development and the Weaponry here this has been a lot of fun
