a calm but slightly urgent puzzle game where you surround zombies with matching survivor tiles under slow-building pressure.

What players say
Players describe a matching puzzler where you surround zombies with survivors under time pressure. The game is short, around 2-3 hours, and players split on the title: some call it fun and intense for that time, while others find it boring, unpolished, or buggy. A constant dial tone and heartbeat sound are widely noted.
