How it feels

A tense survival scavenging experience where players cautiously navigate dangerous, desolate zones while managing limited resources.

What players say

Players describe it as a simple top-down extraction shooter where you scavenge in buildings full of zombies. It is very cheap but has janky physics, a buggy state, and no audio, and some accuse it of being an asset flip of another game. The permanent death is harsh and losing gear stings. Good for a cheap, casual pick-up-and-play session.
