HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (1.6 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Story writing...

Let’s be honest, I know zombie stories are overused, but the writing quality in this game is truly bad. I didn’t like the character Sam at all—he agrees with everything I tell him, he has no opinions of his own! I’m halfway through Day Two, and honestly, I don’t think it’s going to get any better. Even the story developments are dull and repetitive. I’m not attacking you here, but as a writer, I know bad writing when I see it. I was hoping for better than this… Regards.

Leaves ya wanting more

The only reason I don’t give this 5 stars is because I wish it was longer, but I can’t deny how amazing this story was. I felt real connection with Sam and hopefully they make another one like this one. Zombies are my favorite sub genre so I really hope they make another

My name

The game was good but they really didn’t know who I was so it made the texting little impersonal.

★★★★★Aug 30, 2023
Fantastic game

The story was realized good I bonded with the main character so well. I definitely would suggest spending the money for this game it’s really good.

Everbyte just got it

I've played this game before and am also playing Duskwood for the second time. The stories are so great and it surprised me how much I enjoyed playing a text game like this. The characters are so real and I actually bonded with them. I don't know if there are multiple endings built on choices since I pick mostly the same choices. I really hope that I'll see more games from everbyte. Great work everyone 🙏🎉👾

Store description

DEAD CITY is an incredibly thrilling interactive chat story which cannot be told without your help. For Sam, you are the only contact outside of the evacuated area. Live up to the trust placed in you and guide Sam through the post-apocalyptic chat text adventure game in real-time. Make your choices carefully, as they will have severe consequences on the story of the game. DEAD CITY's interface is based on a chat messenger app (similar to Lifeline) representing your connection to Sam. It is neither necessary to answer all messages immediately nor to have the game open permanently. You will be notified about new events even if the App is closed and you can decide yourself how things should be run. Sam needs the help of a good friend. Without you Sam will not survive the next days! Will you meet this challenge? * NEW updated 2019 edition! * Interactive real-time chat text adventure game * Breathtaking story * Your decisions can change everything! * Several days of play time * Statistics: Learn about the decisions other players made at the end of each day* * No internet connection necessary (offline games) * No in-app purchases and no advertising * Considered as a must buy for fans of Lifeline, Telltale and other chat text story games! *for this feature an internet connection is necessary
