Crafting Dead Server Hosting, Explained

What is Crafting Dead?

New to Crafting Dead?

What is Crafting Dead?

Crafting Dead is a multiplayer zombie survival game with a voxel, post-apocalyptic look. You are placed on a zombie-infested island where the cure is somewhere to be found. Look for loot, craft special items, wear the armor and weapons you find, and fend off the endless masses of zombies. Build a base to protect your loot, and team up with allies, because other survivors can be as dangerous as the dead.

Survive the Horde.

Fight off zombies across the island while you look for loot and the cure.

Build a Base.

Craft special items and build a base to keep your loot safe.
