How it feels

A tense, turn-based survival journey across zombie-infested Latvia, where each decision matters and death is permanent.

What players say

Players praise the strategic turn-based combat and Latvian zombie apocalypse setting, but split on value: many say the runs get repetitive after five or so, and the $20 price feels too high for the content. The UI is called clunky and the balance unbalanced, while the game is likened to a lighter Darkest Dungeon with FTL-style map exploration.
