It was side on, I think the people/zombies were in focus and the background was sort of soft focus
I doubt this would have a page on here anyways, but maybe somebody will remember! There was this zombie apocalypse mobile game that I used to play, probably around 2012/2013. IIRC the premise was basically that you had this town (sort of like a compound) that you could slowly add people to, called survivors, and slowly the town would grow and expand while defending itself from the zombies. I feel like the survivors were also categorized into different categories of survivors, with different skills (maybe one was "warrior" and another was "dreamer"?). There was a front gate where one of your survivors would sit and protect the town and also sometimes new survivors would show up and I think you could choose whether or not you wanted to rescue them? There was also like a minigame with this blue pickup truck (I remember that color very specifically lol) where you would like ride out into the wildland and try to pick up other survivors and kill zombies for points/supplies or something. The art style was kind of like Scribblenauts, very cartoonish and characters with blocky heads. Basically I remember everything except the title :/ big thanks to anyone who might remember!
