How it feels

A top-down shooter with film-noir style, physics-driven gore, and strategic flashlight mechanics that create tense, chaotic battles with a darkly comic tone.

What players say

Players call it a short top-down zombie shooter with a 3-5 hour campaign that channels classic Flash games. Most find it fun for the low price, though some point out controller problems and cringey dialogue. There is also a survival horde mode.
