How it feels

A tense, fast-paced survival shooter where you fight through hordes of zombies with arcade-style action and roguelite-driven strategic choices.

What players say

Players describe a free-to-play roguelite shooter where you fight through floors of zombies to reach an elevator, but many find it tedious rather than fun. Complaints center on permadeath wiping all upgrades, a weapon system that forces you to exhaust one gun before switching, and endless enemy spawns that feel unfair. Some enjoy the fast-paced challenge and good-for-a-free-game value.
