What players say

A humorous, atmospheric strategy game in which traditional roles are reversed, giving us the satisfying role of plunging humanity into a zombie apocalypse. It has a distinctive retro style, various references to horror classics and well-designed scenarios which I enjoyed. ⭐ Achievement-wise, the list consists mainly of grind and gimmicky ones, which don't pose much of a challenge on the path to 100% completion.

Great game, challenging at times. Love the art style and music. Would recommend to anyone that enjoys zombies.
That Zombi GuyRecommendedafter 6.6hJun 2026Read on Steam
An awesome synthesis and revival of the horror/comedy tropes of the 70's- to '90's zombie movies, in a 2-d chew-them all tactical black-and white form. Really a fun, ironic and lovely game, I wish to thank the developers for this!
