How it feels

A tense cooperative survival experience where you manage scarce resources and care for a sick uncle while fighting off zombies in a pixelated world.

What players say

Players say it is a fun co-op game with a memorable uncle character, but it is nearly unplayable solo and the zombie combat feels unbalanced. Reviews through 2026 report the developer stopped updating, despite early promises, leaving the game unfinished with bugs like items disappearing from the base.
