About This Game

Co-op zombie survival focused on physical base building, nighttime stealth, and gore with dismemberment. Explore to gather resources, raise defenses, and coordinate to protect your area while smart AI hordes look for ways to break through. At night you’ll see little—and noise gives you away.

Gameplay Loop

Explore & gather: obtain wood, stone, and metal from trees, rocks, metal nodes, and bushes to craft and upgrade.

Build & reinforce: place walls and barriers piece by piece with visible damage (cracks) and physical collapse when destroyed.

Defend & survive: focus on melee combat (firearms available), use stealth, and manage light/sound.

Repair & upgrade between attacks to endure the next night.

AI & Threat

Zombies have auditory perception (noise attracts) and reduced vision in darkness.

In Horde mode, the AI attacks intelligently, re-evaluates routes, and targets weak points in your defenses to open a path toward your area.

Gore & dismemberment: zombies can lose limbs, be decapitated, and crawl when mutilated; blood and remains may persist.

Building & Destruction

Piece-by-piece placement with clear damage feedback (cracks) and physics-based collapse.

Resource gathering is limited to trees, rocks, metal nodes, and bushes (currently you cannot dismantle other world structures).

Progression & Objectives

Improve defenses, paths, and team coordination.

Main goal: protect the area and survive as many nights as possible.

Modes & Multiplayer

Online co-op (PvE).

Horde mode with increasing pressure.

Exploration for resource gathering and expanding defenses.

Standout Features

Permanent night: light and sound are the core gameplay.

Systemic gore that changes zombie behavior when they’re mutilated.

Physical construction with real collapse and clear damage readability.

Horde AI that intelligently exploits your weaknesses.

Length & Replayability

Rising difficulty with high replay value through routes, base layouts, and team decisions. Dynamic AI and noise generate different situations each run.

Accessibility & Performance

Designed for many active zombies thanks to optimizations (pooling and LOD).

This game includes intense violence and explicit gore during zombie combat.

The tone is one of horror and constant tension due to the darkness and stealth.
There is no sexual content or sexual innuendo. There are no depictions of sexual assault or non-consensual sex. There are no depictions of self-harm or drug or alcohol use beyond environmental elements.
