Steam review snapshots
TL:DR; Short little survival card game with an excellent visual theme.I would definitely recommend the game if you like solo cardgames and the overall zombie survival atmosphere.There will be three characters with a slight variation in their fighting method, just to keep it spicy, and they will perish…The game uses replayability to complete the collectible documents and get the whole story.Why it fits
Check it if you want action, adventure filtered by tense, survival, deckbuilding.
