Overview
RunningDead is a unique puzzle and shooting game where players take on the role of controlling zombies. The core gameplay revolves around strategically unleashing your undead horde to bite humans, with the goal of overwhelming them. It's a delicate balance; while you want to spread your infection, keeping too many humans too close can lead to your own demise. Fortunately, the enigmatic Dr. Dead is on hand to offer powerful upgrades and skills.
