How it feels
A slow-burn pixel-horror adventure where you explore a quarantined city, fight for survival, and piece together a viral outbreak story.

What players say
Players say this 2D survival horror is a love letter to classic Resident Evil, with tank controls and no strafing making melee combat particularly clunky. Most agree the solution is to run past enemies or rely on scarce ranged ammo. Opinions split on the level design, with some praising the atmosphere while others find the backtracking excessive.
