Wow, even though the graphics are simple they work surprisingly well. What is that blue box in this white world hmm...

Thanks for the review fuzzalicious! The blue cubes are phones - if a human is near one after escaping the zombie/zombies they will use it to contact the police rather than going to the police station in person.

Loved the simplicity and tension in this game - running after the uninfected was a lot of fun. Was missing some good sound, music, and graphics.

Awesome! Great mechanics and as others have mentioned, even tho the graphics are simple, they don't distract from the play. What does distract a bit is the lack of any sounds. Hard to set a mood without some sound, especially when the visuals are basic. Can't wait to see where this goes.

That was so much fun! Although the first map is the most difficult, due to the large rooms. But it's funny to ambuscade people behind corners :D

I really liked this. The graphics, while basic, are clean and clear. I kinda assumed some boxes were cars in a street, some were shelves, etc. I only found out about phones and police (I was calling them 'blue shooty things' in my head) by reading other comments.

The path finding worked really well, although there were a couple of time when you infected someone they 'jumped' through a wall.

I was kind surpring how the simple mechanic of reds being faster than you so you need to use up the limit sprint added to the game.
