In a zombie apocalypse sparked by a fast-food burger, you guide a group of survivors trying to stop the catastrophe. You give the squad directions and support them rather than directly controlling each survivor’s every action.
Each day, send survivors into procedurally generated cities to search buildings, gather supplies, and fight zombies. Decide how long to scavenge before returning to safety: as night falls, the threats become more dangerous. Special abilities can help the squad through encounters.
Between missions, manage resources such as food and improve your base. Survivors, weapons, items, and abilities offer different combinations to try; new options unlock over repeated attempts, so a failed run can still expand what is available later.
Players who enjoy the game often point to its tense scavenging loop, where deciding what to search for and when to retreat matters, as well as the variety of survivors, weapons, items, and abilities to unlock and combine. Some also enjoy its pixel-art charm and quick sessions. Common reservations include tight mission timers, scarce or unpredictable essential supplies, and repetition or frustration as runs go on.

For every attempt to save the world, you need to find the best combination of objects, special abilities, and weapons. You must use what you get. Endless airstrikes or an army of rats? There are many paths to Rome, but you decide.
The cities are created procedurally, allowing for endless combinations. Plunder the cities as quickly as possible, otherwise an exploding zombie might blast you to pieces, or a zombie on steroids might stomp you to dust. Be careful! Very dangerous hordes of zombies await in the night.
Shortly before the aplocalypse begins, the fast-food chain MKing brings out a new burger. The meat includes a secret, addictive ingredient to increase profits. The plan works. Over time, however, the drug, leads to the shutting down of all areas of the brain except for the need for fresh meat. Lots of meat! If that's not bad enough, the disease also prevents consumers from dying a natural death – violent means are the only option
Expand your base by building various rooms like a greenhouse or a mechanic room and craft crazy, unique weapons!
