Survival games usually deal with the same theme: survival in conditions that are initially unsuitable for life. In them, players take on the role of a character, most often accidentally caught in such conditions, and most often just try to survive.
Survival games usually have a crafting system that allows you to create useful things from various junk, constant dependence on hunger or health indicators, very strong enemies and random events that greatly influence the outcome of the next passing day. Survival games often touch on the theme of the zombie apocalypse.
This list contains all the games in which the task is to survive or in which there are a lot of indicators of the character’s state that need to be monitored (like sleep or hunger).
