Survival Status: Zombie War's controls are simple and intuitive. The player uses their left thumb to control their character's movement and their right thumb to aim and fire their weapon. Ads looking for weapons or other supplies or swimming in murky water will occasionally appear as part of the State of Survival game. You have to be especially careful at night when zombies are more active and if they manage to break through your defenses, make sure your position is firm enough to keep them away. Fight zombies, but these weapons will eventually break and need to be replaced. Weapons are most effective against zombies, but they require ammunition to be destroyed or crafted.
