Raise the dead, eat the suburbs, then the Moon. A pixel-art zombie-horde action strategy game.

vjdanov updated 1d ago 0 MB engine 30

Raise the dead. Eat the suburbs. Then the Moon.

You are the Zombie Master, and nobody locked the cemetery. Call the dead up right where the humans are, point your shambling horde at the next crowd and fight your way through six ridiculous districts, from Pleasant Acres all the way to a Moon made of brain. Every bite grows the horde.

Lead the horde

  • Strike the ground to raise zombies on the spot, or hold to keep them coming
  • Send your dead after joggers, grannies, baristas and influencers, while cops, soldiers and flamethrowers fight back
  • Aim a Rot Comet, let loose the Moon Howl, summon Big Boy and start the Dance of the Dead

Build your army

  • Spend brains on sharper teeth, a bigger horde, looser joints and graves that send reinforcements
  • Mutate your dead into runners, bloaters, zombie dogs, longnecks, screamers and jazz-dancing undead
  • Take the Big Sleep: trade your run for permanent Souls, spend them on Pacts, and rise stronger

Beat the bosses

Every district ends in a boss fight, from HOA Karen and a Series B CEO to General Tankman and the Man in the Moon. Throw everything you have at them, then shamble on to the next district.

Come back every night

  • Fresh daily goals, with a streak that boosts your rewards
  • 25 trophies to collect and weekly leaderboards to climb
  • Catch tooth fairies, weather the frog rain and a watching sky, and more surprises
  • New to necromancy? The Master's Training walks you through your first night
Pixel art, procedural music and a lot of very silly zombies.
