Radio Calls

Radio Calls are the best way to get great Survivors and Hero Tokens. You make Radio Calls through your Radio Tent. To make a Radio Call, you need Radios (Phones). You can see how many Radios you have in the upper left part of your Home Screen.

To make a Radio Call, you can either click on “Radio” button, or tap on your Radio Tent building. You will be taken to this screen:

• Once you upgrade your Radio Tent to level 2, you will always have 3 call options.
• Within each Radio Call type, you will get either a Survivor or Hero Token choice.
• If you get a Survivor, you can either accept the Survivor to your squad, or you can reject the Survivor and get Class Tokens instead.

Let’s look at the different types of Radio Calls.

“Bronze” Radio Call (costs 1 Radio per call)

• With the “Bronze” Radio call, you will get one random option (either a Survivor or Hero Tokens).
• You can get any Prestige Level of Survivor, but Common is the most likely.
• You can get 10, 8, 32, 128 or 256 Hero Tokens, but 2 Hero Tokens is the most likely.
• You have about a 5% chance of getting Hero Tokens from these calls.

As you can see, you have the choice to “Accept” the Survivor, if you have Survivor Slots available, which I don’t. You can see on the left that I have all of my 33 Survivor Slots occupied.

If you get Hero Tokens, you will see this:

As you can see, the game will tell you how many Hero Tokens are needed for the next Trait Upgrade or the cost to Promote the Hero to the next Prestige Level.

“Silver” Radio Call (costs 5 Radios per call)

• With the “Silver” Radio call, you will get two random options (either Survivor or Hero Tokens).
• You can get Uncommon, Rare, Epic or Legendary, but Common is the most likely.
• You can get 10, 32, 128 or 256 Hero Tokens, but 8 Hero Tokens is the most likely.
• You have about an 8% chance of getting a Hero Token option for each choice.

“Gold” Radio Call (costs 15 Radios per call)

• With the “Gold” Radio Call, you will get 3 choices of Survivors or Hero Tokens to choose from.
• Your Survivor Choices will always be Rare, Epic or Legendary, with Rare Survivors the most likely.
• Your Hero Token Choices will always be 32, 128 or 256 Hero Tokens, with 32 Hero Tokens the most likely.
• You have about a 10% chance to get Hero Tokens for each choice.
• This is the best call choice if you are looking for regular Survivors (or Class Tokens) and a balance of different Hero Tokens.

Special “Hero” Calls

The special “Hero” calls are offered quite frequently, and only offer increased odds for one Hero (Maggie is pictured above, but every other Hero has had a “Hero” call). Currently, they are basically a “Silver” Radio Call that costs 10 Radios. You get two options to pick from. The “Hero” Call does not guarantee Hero Tokens; it only offers increased Hero odds for the specified Hero. We have found that the specific Hero is found about 18% of the time, with 10 Hero Tokens being the most common. These calls offer the best option to get Hero Tokens for the specific Hero in the call. However, these calls do very little to help your regular Survivors.

Free Radio Calls

You also get one free “Bronze” Radio call every 20 hours. You will see a timer on your Radio Tent building that tells you how long until your free call. When you have a free call available, you will see it in two places.

Tap on either of those places, and you will be taken to your free radio call option.
