Find the perfect spot to build your fortress.
In 7 Days to Die, killing zombies is only half the struggle. Whatever map you choose should have a good balance between cities, traders, biomes, and zombies to give you the tools you need to survive the hordes. Below are the Top 15 seeds that are compatible with the latest release, Alpha 18.
15. Rosebud
Lumberjacks in this game suck. If you want to keep your distance, Rosebud only has a small corner for the snow biome.
- Every biome has its own place in the world
- Over 10 cities to explore
- Very small snow biome in the north
14. I am adrift in a sea of madness
Build the best zombie fortress you can. This map has tons of flatland, making it easy to build huge castles and destroy the zombie hordes.
- Tons of cities spread out evenly
- Mostly forest and plains biomes
- Limited bodies of water
13. Death is not an option but is a reality
If you’ve ever dreamed of building a base over the water, this is the map to do it. The islands in the large body of water can be easily fortifiable against the zombie sieges.
- Huge body of water in the middle of the map
