Infestation

About

Infestation is a 1990 DOS/Amiga ST survival game that mixes shooter action with base-building strategy. You scavenge for supplies, fortify positions, and battle hordes of undead while managing limited resources. Combat ranges from quick gunfights to calculated ambushes as you navigate large maps filled with hazards and rival survivors. The game pits you against both AI-controlled zombies and human players in a struggle to stay alive. For its era, the game’s map size and genre blending stood out. It offered a rare mix of real-time combat and offline planning, letting you design defenses or strike at others when you had the edge. Though its online elements were ahead of their time, the single-player rework retains the core survival tension. Fans of resource management in chaotic settings might find its stripped-down approach refreshing.
