No two playthroughs are ever the same. SURVIVE OVERWHELMING HORDES Face massive, screen-filling waves of mutated enemies attacking from all directions. Each wave escalates. Each night gets deadlier. Dodge, adapt, and push your build to its limits in pure bullet hell chaos. LOOT, UPGRADE, DOMINATE Collect resources from fallen enemies and crack safes under pressure to grow stronger.
