“Do I have what it takes to survive the zombie apocalypse?”

It’s one of the most important questions in life, next to “should I invest in a life insurance plan?” and “should I name my second child after that Mass Effect character?”

DayZ, a mod of the military simulation ARMA 2, was created in time to jump into the zombie hype train that everyone is currently riding right now. And the best thing about it? It puts all your undead survival theories to the test.

But there are other titles that leave you stranded in a wasteland with nothing but your wits and the barest of necessities to fend off hordes of man-eaters. So how do you know which one will satisfy all your zombie survival needs?

Worry not, dear friends! This article, which lists the Top 10 Games Like DayZ, will help you decide! So pull that hatchet out of that still-squirming corpse and put on your best Daryl Dixon scowl, ‘coz we’ve got zombies to slaughter!

Never go anywhere, or do anything, without Firecrackers. Use them to distract and evade.

Switch between randomly generated survivors as you battle in a zombie filled open world. Team up with three of your favorite friends in 4-player co-op and wipe out the Blood Plague. You can only hope to survive.

It’s an apocalyptic landscape with a lot of cars, you can use them as barricades, fix them with tool kits and run over zombies. Except for Juggernauts, you’ll probably find a head-shot works better. Build your community by finding survivors. Select the perfect combination of engineers, computer hackers and car salesmen.

Find a car, fill it up with Ruck Sacks, and transport several at once.

Keep morale high by maintaining inventory and keeping nearby zed populations low. If you don’t your base will stay filled with very sad and sorry survivors.
