Originating as a popular fan-made browser game, Mini DAYZ closely follows the footsteps of its PC sibling, and offers a hard-core, permadeath survival experience with plenty of heart-pounding moments. Stranded in a post-apocalyptic world with signature buildings and items familiar to every DayZ survivor, players in Mini DAYZ are challenged to survive for as long as humanly possible.
To fight the infected, wild animals, harsh weather conditions and hostile AI survivors, you must scavenge cities, villages and military encampments for food and other vital resources. Anything that will keep you warm, protected and healthy always counts, but your inventory space is limited...
As you hone your survivalist instincts, you'll also start building your own little camps with stashes that can keep you going for yet another day, and possibly prepare you for a dangerous journey across the sea to discover new places to loot.
Compared to Mini DAYZ for web browsers, the iOS/Android edition offers a single player mode that has been significantly upgraded with hi-res pixel art visuals, randomly generated game world, and tailor-made touch controls to keep the mobile version simple to learn, but hard to master.
"The feedback we've gathered during the soft launch in selected countries was invaluable for tweaking the touch controls, as well as for balancing the overall difficulty of the game. It is DAYZ after all, so it has to be an unforgiving experience – and that's exactly what players like about it. I'm really happy that everyone can play the game now, we're looking forward to what you have to say about it. There's not many titles like Mini DAYZ on mobile platforms" added Mike Azovskikh, the original author of Mini DAYZ.
Mini DAYZ marks Bohemia Interactive's second recent release for mobile devices, the previous being a successful PvP strategy game Arma Mobile Ops, which managed to attract close to a million commanders worldwide. In the past, Bohemia Interactive also published Arma Tactics, a turn-based close-combat strategy game for iOS and Android.
Mini DAYZ is now available worldwide – free of charge, and free of any in-app purchases.
