About This Game

Drive your train through the zombie apocalypse and defeat the boss in this top down action roguelite. You must aim your primary weapon, gather resources with the help of your drones, rescue survivors and upgrade the might of your train strategically. Unlock new locomotives, weapons and bosses to defeat!

Choo Choo Survivor 2 takes some inspiration from Vampire Survivors and Dome Keeper with respect to horde survival and strategic upgrading, but apart from that Choo Choo Survivor 2 is its own experience with its own gameplay.

Download and play Choo Choo Survivor 2 for free using the Steam playtest. Choo Choo Survivor 2 will continue to be free until it is ready for launch on Steam.

Each locomotive has its own auxiliary system, for example the FP7 has the Fire Breather auxiliary system allowing your train to emit devastating flames. The primary weapon is independent of the locomotive you select so you get to choose which primary weapon you want to crush or melt the zombie horde with!

On every journey there is an optional relic keeper to defeat which grants you an additional auxiliary system, and there is also a shop where you can buy another auxiliary system to install on your train plus purchase resources and hire survivors!

The environment is fully destructible and destroying buildings will reduce the amount of zombies spawning so it is a good idea to just destroy everything! Your main resources are gold, steel and survivors and these are what you need to upgrade your train. Gold is spawned from crates and a few building types; tombs, cabins, supermarkets, police stations. Steel is spawned from metal structures such as cars, camper vans, and a variety of buildings and structures you'd expect to have steel. Survivors will be hiding out at their safe houses and there are a random number of survivors each time you play.

The track is procedurally generated so each play through is different from the last! When starting a run you select from one of three journeys. When you start your journey go slow and steady, gather resources, and upgrade. As you progress, more and more zombies of increasing power will emerge and try to destroy your locomotive. Your ultimate goal is to defeat the zombie boss at the end of your journey!

The game comes in many different colour schemes and you can choose your favourite from the Settings menu. You can change the game resolution and key binding. 5120 x 1440 wide screen monitors are supported.

At launch the full game will have five bosses, ten locomotives to unlock, ten primary primary weapons to unlock and at least ten auxiliary systems, allowing for lots of variety in train configuration and upgrades.
