How it feels
A brief, narrative-focused tower defense game with a melancholic yet hopeful tone, balancing idle moments of dialogue with bursts of zombie shooting.

What players say
Players praise the beautiful pixel art and touching story, but note the game is very short at around 1-2 hours. The zombie tower defense gameplay has dialogue choices that lead to multiple endings, though some find the constant character grunts annoying and the text auto-advances too quickly. There is no music, only sound effects.
