Infos zum Spiel

Dead Wave is a first-person zombie survival horror game where a mysterious radio signal is the only thing standing between you and the end of the world — or the thing that caused it.

Trapped inside a fortified survivor base during the early hours of the outbreak, you play as Jack, a sharp-tongued, exhausted everyman doing his best to stay alive, stay sane, and figure out why the dead started walking the moment a strange UHF transmission hit the airwaves.

Armed with scavenged weapons, improvised tools, and a dangerously sarcastic inner monologue, you’ll explore abandoned facilities, restore failing systems, and fight back against the undead while uncovering the truth behind Dead Wave — a signal that refuses to go silent.

🧟 SURVIVE THE DEAD

Zombies aren’t just obstacles — they’re a constant threat that reacts to sound, light, and your mistakes.

• Face relentless undead enemies in tight, atmospheric environments

• Choose when to fight, when to run, and when to hide

• Manage health, stamina, ammo, and scarce resources

• Every encounter is dangerous, especially when supplies run low

Survival isn’t guaranteed — it’s earned.

🔦 IMMERSIVE FIRST-PERSON HORROR

Experience horror through Jack’s eyes with full first-person immersion.

• Dynamic lighting and deep shadows

• Limited flashlight power and battery management

• Environmental storytelling through notes, props, and abandoned spaces

• Tense audio design that makes every sound matter

Darkness isn’t just scary — it’s lethal.

🧠 A STORY TOLD THROUGH PLAY

There are no cutscenes to hide behind.
Dead Wave tells its story entirely through gameplay.

• Fully voiced protagonist narration reacts to your actions

• Radio transmissions reveal clues, warnings, and unanswered questions

• Discover VHS tapes, recordings, and survivor notes

• Piece together what caused the outbreak — and why the signal still broadcasts

Jack’s dark humor masks fear, panic, and the growing realization that this apocalypse might not have been an accident.

🛠️ SCAVENGE, CRAFT, AND ADAPT

Survival means using whatever you can find — or build.

• Scavenge abandoned survivor bases and facilities

• Craft essential items to stay alive

• Repair systems, restore power, and reinforce defenses

• Turn found materials into tools, weapons, and upgrades

The world is broken. You’ll have to fix just enough of it to survive.

🔫 WEAPONS & TOOLS OF DESPERATION

From blunt melee weapons to limited firearms, every tool matters.

• Melee combat when ammo runs dry

• Firearms with realistic scarcity and tension-filled reloads

• Weapon handling designed to keep you vulnerable

• Improvised tools that reflect survival over power fantasy

This isn’t about being a hero — it’s about making it through the night.

📻 THE SIGNAL IS STILL BROADCASTING

A radio crackles to life.
A voice cuts through the static.
The dead start walking.

Whatever Dead Wave is…
It’s still transmitting.

And if you can hear it —
you’re already part of the story.
