How it feels

A tense top-down survival game where you scavenge for supplies, secure safe houses, and fight zombie waves to escape a quarantined island.

What players say

Players praise the ragdoll physics and fun ideas but agree the game is very early in development, with some calling it a prototype. The voice acting draws near-universal mockery. There are mixed reports on controls and confusion over invisible walls and finding objectives. Those who enjoy it point to the cheap price and potential.
