I'm creating a survival video game but i don't want it to be generic. What would be cool to add?

A survival game is usually based of starting with nothing and then working your way up so that you can take on the hassle of living thew an experience. Most game are boring were you just find stuff and then kill zombies. I suggest adding a crafting and planting system so that it will create more content to keep peoples attention and allow them to more enjoy what there putting effort into. Like minecraft for example, the reason people keep playing is because they like the fact that they can create something from nothing. And for the love of all gamers. Don't make the game about nothing but killing zombies.

please excuse my grammar. Its rather late lol.

Add Zombies! Survival games are always better when you add zombies and can fortify a house or shop with nails and boards and seal yourself inside like a little zombie-proof base!
