How it feels

You fend off relentless zombie waves from a body cam perspective, relying on a single rifle and a flashlight to survive until midnight.

What players say

Players call it a horror-focused wave shooter with a bodycam view and oppressive atmosphere, but many note it lacks content beyond the core loop. A major update in late 2025 polarized the community, with some praising new modes and others feeling it became a watered-down Call of Duty zombies clone that removed original maps.
