* DolledUpInstallment: Take a look at some gameply of the now-defunct game ''Crossfire Warzone'' (also developed by Joycity), and you will immediately notice ''The King of Fighters Survival City'' is mostly just a reskin of that city builder.

* ExcusePlot: Really, the tutorial is the only time you'll see any resemblance to plot and characters interacting with each other, and it only serves to give context about why you are playing a game about KOF characters fighting zombies. When you are done stabilizing your city, the story is never picked up again.


Added DiffLines:

* NonPlayerCharacter: Krizalid is the only returning character that cannot be recruited. Justified because, well, he works for NESTS, the game's antagonistic organization.

* VideoGameCrueltyPunishment: If you attack other players' cities with lower leves, the amount of PVP points required will increase. If that does not prevent you from attacking them anyway, the game will ban you from using Territory Shields (preventing you from shielding from any possible retaliations), which stacks up to 1 hour. On top of that, you don't get to loot anything from their cities. In short, the game punishes you for attacking players who are far weaker than you.

* AdvertisedExtra: The main premise is supposed to about KOF characters defending your city from zombies. And while the early part of the game is stabilizing your city by getting rid of a zombie infestation, the zombies themselves pretty much disappear once you are done cleaning your city off them. Your main enemies are actually thugs and soldiers working for NESTS. You'll only fight zombies again by entering the Dark Lab.
