What players say

Watched it on Game Grumps and also enjoy the gameplay loop. Non-stressful, nice minigames, challenging lil zombie journey.

Sad to see how this game has died due to cheap copies such as "Oregon Trail", literally never heard of it.

Pretty fun, despite the controller integration not working. Keyboard and mouse is all you really need for a simple game like this. I completed it in 6 hours on Normal difficulty on my first playthrough.
