A [[Real Time Strategy|real time strategy]] game by Blendo Games, released in 2011. Included in the third [[Humble Indie Bundle]].
 
Set in the 1960s, in [[Where the Hell Is Springfield?|Nuevos Aires]], AZS tasks the player with evacuating as many people as possible, before they're overrun by the emerging [[Not Using the Z Word|Zed]] hordes.
 
To accomplish this, the player is given control of a rescue helicopter, as well as various mercenaries, capable of fighting the Zed.

That... and orbital nukes.

=== Provides examples of: ===
* [[Apocalypse How]]: As a game mechanic, even! There are four levels of infection in an area, the bigger it is the harder the map is. The descriptions of the levels match up with ours, with level 1 representing contained outbreak and 4 being a total infection of the area.
* [[A Winner Is You]]: The ending is the same, no matter who actually won.
Line 40 ⟶ 39:
* [[Point Build System]]
* [[Randomly Generated Levels]]: A large part of the challenge.
* [[Real Time Withwith Pause]]
* [[Risk -Style Map]]: the overworld view.
* [[Save Scumming]]: Your game saves every time you win, lose, or concede a level, making it impossible to 'undo' an action. Unless you realize that, as noted [http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1987955 here], your savegamessave games are saved in the [[App Data]]AppData folder. Amazing how much [[Fake Difficulty]] can vanish when you can [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong]]?
* [[Sniper Rifle|Sniper Rifles]]: One mercenary unit is a team of snipers set up on a rooftop. While you can tell them which direction to shoot in, you can't target individual enemies, and they stop shooting while rotating to a new position.
* [[Sniping Mission]]: If you end up with only a sniper team and barricades/mines/bombs.
