They Are Thousands is a single-player, third-person action shooter focused on survival against massive zombie hordes. Set after the collapse of human civilisation, the game challenges players to stay alive while facing overwhelming numbers of infected in fast-paced combat scenarios.
You play as a lone survivor fighting through post-apocalyptic environments that have been completely overrun. With limited space, constant pressure, and no safe zones, every moment is about positioning, movement, and efficient firepower. Zombies attack in dense swarms, forcing players to think tactically rather than shoot everything in sight.
Core Gameplay
The core experience revolves around:
Combat against large groups of zombies
Real-time third-person shooting with an emphasis on mobility and crowd control
Survival-focused encounters, where mistakes are quickly punished
Real-time strategy (RTS) and Tower Defence (TD) modes are also supported during gameplay
Player Goals & Challenge
Your primary goal is simple: survive as long as possible and eliminate all threats. Each session tests your reaction speed, awareness, and ability to manage overwhelming odds. As the horde grows, players must adapt their movement, aim, and decision-making to avoid being surrounded.
The challenge comes from:
Large enemy counts are attacking simultaneously
Limited room to retreat
Continuous pressure with little downtime
