went all out and got the cure for zombieism, shut down evil portal, and captured every building on the map on day 174, so its prety much farmville from now onwards lol

Claimed half the area, completed it in around an hour, I like this game and would recommend it to anyone thinking of trying it out.

i've sealed the portal, rebuilt the whole city, cured zombieism, established a constitution, and am now the president of a governed society...
i'm proud of myself

If could change anything about this otherwise awesome game, it would be to give us an option to turn off the notices that come up after every day. They don't give any info that isn't shown elsewhere, and half the game is spent clicking through them.

Have those extra people do a myriad of other jobs. The game is easier if you rush towards a side [corner] anyways.... Seriously though, I hope you aren't only attacking / reclaiming, etc., one building at a time. There are so many jobs for the people to do. Keep the people busy, busy, busy, while also making sure you have enough guys to stand guard.

ok ill put 2 builders on now what do i do with my 1000 others but if i put my other 100 on it will still take 2 days WTF

My advice for those struggling with this game is to start strong. If the map generated on the first day is terrible (no labs or malls/stores nearby, only offices/warehouses/graveyards nearby, not enough useful survivors) then restart until the condition favors you. The game would be much more enjoyable with a "lucky" environment, trust me:)

It really wasn't luck. It may not have taken me too many tries to win Harder, but unlike Rebuild 2's Impossible, Rebuild's Nightmare took me awhile to learn. This is not a game where the hardest modes have enough luck to truly help one win. (Though too much bad luck is a definite possibility.) One just needs to learn to adjust their playing style until they finally get it right. If you get frustrated, try Rebuild 2. It is easier and the strategy is slightly different there, and it may help you learn to adjust your playing style, just as it did myself. (And winning the hard badge there might also help your confidence here.) If you keep at it, I am sure you can at least win playing Harder. Good luck. :)

I agree. The easiest by far of the most difficult modes of the two games is Rebuild 2's Impossible with experienced people. Then Rebuild 2's Impossible with unexperienced people. And finally, the hardest, is Rebuild's Nightmare mode. But that is part of what I think makes it better. It definitely gives me a stronger sense of accomplishment. If Rebuild had the three layer color option that Rebuild 2 has, I would likely never again (or at minimum, very seldom), venture to Rebuild 2. I really don't love having to remember all the numerous buildings that I've cleared that need to be reclaimed, each and every turn; I adore seeing all those green squares. :) The other great part of that color option is that it is also helpful seeing where the people and food are, at a glance. I sure wish that if it were easy to add that color option, that SarahNorthway would add it to this original version. Please, please, please....

i've played rebuild 2 before rebuild. I thought this game can also send 10 people to move to a new city and start all over again, but no. rebuild 2 nightmare mode is a lot easier when you finished easy mode :).

Stickington, imao, you should try rebuild 2 because first of all it has a better user interface(you can check your survivor, see his/ her stats, his/her face, equips and even change their names). Second scouting buildings and reclaiming buildings are 100% safe which means you don't need to worry about bringing an extra soldier everytime you try to reclaim or scout, 1 person can do the job alone. third you can gain items for your survivors to use so they become much stronger depending on the item. fourth is your survivors can gain skills and they get better and better each time they do a certain task which makes them even stronger.

Stickington, is there a section you've noticed that you're having trouble with? If so, it is easy to give you advice. If you need practically a walkthrough, I can help you tomorrow afternoon Pacific Time Zone, USA, if you'd like (or the next day, similar time). If you feel that that is the best option for you, perhaps you should pm me. Meanwhile, if it isn't from the start, but more than just a simple question, it might be helpful to check out the JayIsGames walkthrough. http://jayisgames.com/review/rebuild.php. I don't agree with all of their recommendations, but you might find some helpful answers. I hope that one of these options can help you, because this is a great game. Read the tutorial. Make sure to have enough food. Get lots of farms and housing very early. Get a hospital fairly early. Then Police Stations, Laboratories, and Malls are next most important. But do not forget to have some Churches / Bars or people get upset easy, which can cause great difficulties.

LOL2143, you are very welcome; I am glad I could help. :) Since this is one of your favorite games, you might wish to play the harder mode multiple times until you get quite good at it and then try Nightmare. Or do Rebuild 2's Impossible mode multiple times to prepare for Nightmare. Nightmare is by far the most difficult mode of these two games, and it might take multiple times to win initially, but assuming you like a challenge, once you get good at this game, Nightmare mode can be all the more fun. Anymore, if I am ever in the mood to take it easy, I'll just go back to harder mode, lol. I have no real need for an easier mode than Impossible on Rebuild 2. It is just whether or not I play using experienced people. I do prefer this first Rebuild, probably because it is harder, lol, except I love the 3 colors on Rebuild 2, so that I know at a glance if a building is safe, etc. I wish they could / would add that addition that to this game.

I've dominated every building. Thanks for the help J617 :3. I'm ready to take it to the extreme. so i put the map to harder mode to get the badge. this is also one of my favorite games too

LOL2143, you've got that far ... now is not the time to give up! When most of the town is reclaimed, somehow there are just so many zombies on those remaining blocks that it can take awhile to reclaim. Just send as many people as you can safely (it is important to protect the rest of the town), however many times it takes. That means send a LOT more people than what is needed to keep the attack danger level 0%. I.e., send 60 people instead of 5 or even 15, if it is safe to do so. Likely, even with those numbers you will still have to attack multiple times. Good luck! This is one of my favorite games. :)

dominated all of the buildings but one. sent soldiers to kill zombies which is in the state of an overrun and making sure the danger levels are 0%. done. the school should be safe. check after two days. woah woah woah hang on. overrun again. hm. ok sent the amount of soldiers making sure danger levels are 0%. check after two days... OVERRUN AGAIN!!!! Final step: give up >:(

I thought it'd be fun to name the city after where I live with "New" tagged on. On nightmare mode and honestly I'm up to New New New New New New Tyler but it won't fit, please update to expand?

I accidently sent a Builder on a Kill Zombies mission.
He won. I guess the builder killed all the zombies with his buzzsaw or something?
