❤ Streamlined Turn-Based Tactics

The game features a highly streamlined turn-based tactical combat system that removes tedious elements often found in the genre. Battles focus on engaging against large groups of zombie enemies, where unit placement and synergies between characters are crucial. The game emphasizes fast-paced, simultaneous enemy movement to create a true "zombie mob" experience, testing the player's tactical skills.

❤ Challenging Stages and Replayability

Players encounter a series of increasingly difficult stages, with many reviewers praising the game's high difficulty curve. The developers have designed the scenarios to be more akin to puzzle games than traditional tactics titles. Success requires precise, error-free moves and the ability to exploit enemy AI patterns, often necessitating multiple retries to overcome certain levels.

❤ Permanent Consequences

One standout feature is the permanent death mechanic. Characters who die in combat or succumb to starvation are gone for good, forcing players to carefully manage their party and make tough decisions about who to keep alive. This adds weight to each tactical decision, as the loss of a character can significantly impact the player's ability to progress.

❤ Ration Management

After each mission, survivors must be fed, and if a character goes unfed for two consecutive periods, they will die permanently. This ration management system adds an extra layer of strategy, as players must balance the needs of their party members against the dwindling food supplies.

❤ Synergistic Unit Abilities

Each playable character has unique abilities and strengths, encouraging players to experiment with different party compositions and utilize the synergies between units. The diverse cast of survivors, ranging from the overpowered to the seemingly useless, requires careful consideration to find the optimal team for each stage.
