About this game

“A real Gem” – Destructoid at E3

“Offers a different experience for zombie game veterans” – Co-Optimus

“Has a lot more going for it than smashing brains and gory, red goo ... With a surprisingly deep crafting system” – GamesRadar

Collect the pages of a Survival Guide and figure it out, of course! Find food, water, and shelter before you perish. Uh oh, is it getting dark? Figure out how to get through the night! While you’re at it, gather up some of this awesome stuff and piece together over 100 handmade weapons and tools—from shotguns to Molotov cocktails. Now you can defend yourself and your friends like a boss!

  • Explore four islands filled with unique flora and fauna and a variety of abhorrent monstrosities.
  • Collect “Survival guide” video chapters to learn tips that will save your life!
  • Play with a friend offline through the story mode or go online and play with a friend through 8 demanding challenges..
