About This Game

Survive the Undead Onslaught with the Power of Words!



In this thrilling action-survival game, you find yourself in a forest under siege by relentless zombies. But these aren't just any zombies—they are fueled by words. To fend off the undead, you'll need to type the words displayed above their heads. Each correct letter sends a bullet flying, and completing the word takes down the enemy. The words vary in difficulty, becoming more challenging as you progress through the stages.

Level Up and Equip Powerful Items:

As you eliminate enemies, you'll gain experience and level up. With each level, choose from a selection of common, rare, or legendary items to enhance your survival chances. Strategize your loadout with powerful items that can dramatically impact the outcome of the game, helping you survive longer against increasingly difficult waves of zombies.

Master the Art of Survival:



Explore three unique maps, each with its own difficulty curve, as you fight to survive wave after wave of undead. Face off against four different types of enemies:

  • Normal Zombies: Regular words that keep you on your toes.
  • Confusing Zombies: Their words shuffle every second, making them tricky to defeat.
  • Rubbish Zombies: A chaotic mix of random letters and numbers.
  • Small Zombies: These enemies have a single-letter word but are very fast.

Harness Special Words and Combos:

Use special word types to gain advantages in battle:
  • Purple Words: Instantly kill three visible enemies.
  • Blue Words: Freeze all visible enemies in their tracks.
  • Gold Words: Achieve double gold amount.

Build up your combo bar by typing accurately, multiplying your score as you chain together correct words. Be careful—one mistake can reset your combo and cost you valuable points. Certain rare and legendary items interact with the combo bar, adding even more strategic depth to the gameplay.

Visit the Shop for Strategic Upgrades:

Earn gold by defeating zombies and use it in the shop to fortify your defenses. Purchase barricades to block enemy advances, mines to decimate groups of zombies, mud to slow them down, and torches to light up the night. Careful management of your resources can make the difference between life and death, especially when darkness falls and the zombies become even more dangerous.

Climb the Leaderboards:

Test your typing skills and survival instincts as you aim to last as long as possible. Your performance will be ranked on global leaderboards based on your score and typing accuracy. Will you rise to the top and prove your mastery of words and survival?

Key Features:
  • Unique Typing-Based Combat: Use your typing skills to fend off hordes of zombies.
  • Strategic Leveling System: Choose from a variety of items to customize your playstyle.
  • Dynamic Shop System: Purchase and deploy defensive items to increase your chances of survival.
  • Diverse Enemy Types: Each with unique challenges to overcome.
  • Special Word Types: Gain powerful effects by typing the right words.
  • Combo System: Enhance your score with accurate typing and strategic play.
  • Challenging Maps: Three maps with distinct difficulty levels.
  • Global Leaderboards: Compete against other players and show off your skills.

Can you survive the zombie apocalypse using only your wits and your words? The undead are waiting...
