Sarah Northway's third post-apocalyptic city builder, Rebuild 3: Gangs of Deadville, is out now on Steam and has a beta on Android, and will hit mobile proper later this summer.

The game has you gather up the last few survivors of an apocalypse, and work together to rebuild a ruined city as a last ditch effort to fend off zombies.

You'll have to make loads of tough, strategic decisions as you choose different buildings to construct and different technologies to research, and figure out how best to use your survivors - leading to darkly comic situations with your citizens.

Eventually you'll have a massive metropolis, and have to put together an impromptu government to run the whole thing. It's like Sim City. With zombies.

Rebuild 3: Gangs of Deadsville

The game's got a campaign mode with 30 missions, where you rebuild cities of increasing size and difficulty. But as the towns and events are randomised, you can play through it again and again and again and again.

We reviewed the first Rebuild on mobile and called it "a fun, addictive city manager, with just enough undead frisson to make things interesting" in our Bronze Award review.

You can get Gangs of Deadville on Steam here for £9.34, or get a PC version with the Android beta here for $12.75. Northway Games says the game will be getting a full launch on Google Play and iOS in July or August. We'll let you know.
