Not specific, just want to know if this even exists: a city clearing zombie game

Has anyone made a zombie game where you actually clear/retake an infested city? Lots of games have you raid a city to build a base somewhere else, (7D2D, unturned, now Vein, etc.) or just do things in an infested city (Dying Light, RE, etc.) sometimes culminating in some sort of big climax that results in or implies the end of the zombie times, or maybe you just leave, but are there any that have that element of progression where you slowly take more of the map and the zombies aren't just randomly spawned in a radius around the player regardless of how many you knock down? The closest I have ever found was an old flash game from when those were a thing, based around worker placement and resource management.

So I have been trying to scratch an itch I don't know if I can still scratch. Are there any MMOs that still exist that use numpad movement, have a clunky UI, and really let you immerse in the game (I'm talking about the good old fashioned run across the continent to do anything days. Like Ruins of Kunark days.)

Outer Wilds changed my life then Tunic changed it again

And some game recommendations by me to add on to the post:

• Taiji
  • A 2D puzzle game where you slowly unravel how to solve each different element of the puzzles, eventually culminating in a massive puzzle gauntlet. Basically identical in concept and execution to The Witness, but still very much its own unique and fun game.
• The Golden Idol
  • A puzzle game where each level you must examine a scene to figure out exactly what happened, eventually piecing together the full story over several levels. Don't let the art style put you off, it's an incredibly well done game. Most similar to Return of the Obra Dinn in concept.
• Stories: The Path of Destinies
  • an action RPG with a branching choice-driven storyline, but not every story has a happy ending... You'll piece together the true story over multiple playthroughs and eventually find the one true path. It wasn't a particularly life-changing game but it was still a lot of fun and worth checking out if it sounds interesting!

Games listed in the image, for those who want a straight list instead of looking at an image:

• Heaven's Vault
• Outer Wilds
• Tunic
• Return of the Obra Dinn
• Chants of Sennaar

I am looking for games that are visually impressive and make use of my 5090 so I can get more use out of it before it becomes second place (though I guess technically its second place to the RTX 6000 Pro Blackwell).

I have already played Cyberpunk 2077, played the heck out of it, very fun, though it has some annoyances so on subsequent playthroughs mods removed those annoyances for me which was great. This game really had a lovely skill tree customization which let you have many different play styles and the free form missions were excellent for letting you complete them in all sorts of ways.

I have also played Atomfall and just have the new DLC left to play through. Its not really that graphically challenging. It was an OK game.

I have also played Split Fiction, which is probably the absolute most fun anyone can have with another person in video game form, especially if one is used to games and the other isnt, but in other cases as well. Very relaxing and high fun to down time ratio.

Played both Robocop games as well. Ok, but not that graphically challenging.

Sort of the big thing I want to avoid is MTXs and marketing dark patterns like FOMO and especially Monetary Dark Patterns. Basically things listed on this website are things I want to avoid

For the record I play on a 4k 144hz monitor and prefer higher frame rates, like 100 ish for comfortable play without eye strain.

I posted a [list of Pokémon games you can play in a browser at !pokemon@sopuli.xyz](https://lemmyverse.link/lemmy.zip/post/47994827). I have pasted the list as it is now. If you’re reading this in the future, it’s likely some new games have been added to the linked list that aren’t on the pasted version here.

The pasted list

Credit to this Reddit post by u/Aligatueur, and commenters below who added games. Went looking for some of these to play myself, figured I'd post the resource on Lemmy too.

Just saw that this web app was available, and I think it seems like a cool idea. It's like a gamified rec engine.

Unfortunately it needs a sign up to start, but looks like there's no email verification right now. And thankfully it runs in web browser, no app needed.

Tried it, and it seems kinda jank. I don't recognize any of the 'experts', and didn't really know what to do with games I already played, and liked, but didn't love. The preferences and special cards didn't seem interesting.

So I dunno. Maybe it'll be useful over time and with more runs. But I thought it seemed neat, anyway and thought this community might be interested.

I like the story and feel of genshin impact and the fact that it's open world along with the world design

I've tried looking online but most posts are asking for games with similar combat style while I'm looking for games that have story, feel, open world and world design to genshin

Unfortunately genshin is an gacha game and I dislike gacha

I prefer games with female main characters but ones with males are okay

Bonus points if you can outlevel the current encounters by grinding enough, and for turn-based games.

List will update as I learn about more tools. Feel free to recommend some in the comments!

• searching in this community ;)
• https://steampeek.hu/, intended for indie game discovery. Allows filtering by date, Steam tags, game release status; and searching for games like other games.
• https://abletoplay.com/, intended to help gamers with accessibility needs find games that match them
• https://www.ludocene.com/, a card game-ified recommendation engine courtesy of this post

Although this is a community for finding suggestions and not a video game deals community, you might want to know about https://isthereanydeal.com/ and https://www.dekudeals.com/ for tracking sales.

This list is not exhaustive. Will update with more if I see them. Some things here might not have started as "give me suggestions", like my own post "What is your favorite indie game?" (which is also why I did not initially post it here instead) but considering the replies turned out to be a list of games fitting the parameters set in the title just like a "give me suggestions" post I figured I'd include posts not intended to be suggestion seeking but that could practically be used for it based on their comment section full of games and nothing else too.
