Dark War Survival 10 Million Dollar A Month: Players Favorite SLG Game

When it comes to casual SLG mobile games, Century Games’ Whiteout Survival and First Fun Games’ Last War: Survival are the best. These two games can bring their companies millions in profits every month. And now there is another game that is also performing very well. It is Dark War Survival.

Whiteout Survival-Like Games

Dark War Survival is called a Whiteout Survival-like game. The two games have extremely similar game cores, and the theme is survival test. The producer of Dark War Survival is also First Fun. They have experience in making this kind of game, so making Dark War Survival can be said to be a piece of cake.

The start of Whiteout Survival-like game is very critical. Whether it can attract the attention of players as soon as the game is launched determines the fate of this game. Fortunately, Dark War Survival has been online for 3 months, and its monthly income has exceeded 10 million US dollars, which can be said to be a very good start.

New Style

If it is just a skin-changing game of Whiteout Survival, why don’t players choose Whiteout Survival? This shows that Dark War Survival has its own unique core.

Both games are based on the theme of “doomsday”. “Whiteout Survival” focuses on ice and snow, fighting with ferocious beasts and mobs in extreme cold weather to rebuild homes; “Dark War Survival” is mainly based on doomsday survival, telling the story of the survival confrontation between survivors and zombies.

In addition, both camps are expanded around the central building. “Whiteout Survival” is named “Furnace” and “Dark War Survival” is called “Bonfire”.

Whiteout Survival takes ice and snow as the theme, allowing players to experience the satisfaction of collecting resources little by little in the ice and snow and expanding the survival area. Dark War Survival focuses on creating a doomsday atmosphere.

Unique Design

One of the main features of this game is the setting of a day and night alternation system. During the day, zombies will hide in the jungle, and players have time to collect resources for construction, repair, and assign tasks to residents. At night, waves of zombies will attack the camp, and players must be prepared for defense and attack, which gives players a sense of tension.

Players completing tasks will receive Dark War Survival Rubies or other rewards that allow them to obtain resources directly.

In addition, Dark War Survival has uniquely incorporated combat into the game. Players can shoot vertically and deal with zombies encountered on the map. This is more in line with the theme of doomsday zombies and also gives players a sense of tension and excitement in the game process.

Finally, there is the resident management system. The home needs to assign their work according to the different characteristics of different residents. For example, some residents are good at repairing equipment but consume physical strength quickly, and some are prone to emotional breakdown but are good at working for long hours. Players need to make reasonable arrangements to ensure that residents are in a happy mood. This is a bit like Palworld.

Overall, the first experience of the game can give players a good sense of substitution and immersion, and gradually become frequent online players. Of course, from the perspective of the underlying architecture, these casual SLGs are all COK-like+ models. In the early stage, they focus on simulation management, use light gameplay to attract and retain players, and later develop into a COK-like model to retain players for a long time and attract players to top up by events.
