Picture this: You’re living your dream life in a tropical paradise, far from the chaos of society. You’ve got a loving partner, two incredible kids, and even a cute fuzzy dog! Plus, your community is filled with wonderful people.
Congratulations! You’ve made it! Life couldn’t get any better. But, there’s a twist.
In this dream world, you’re a zombie! That’s right – your spouse, kids, dog, even your neighbors, all zombies. Green skin, rotting limbs, deadly breath, the works!
Yet, strangely enough, you’ve never been happier. You love your undead life. Heck, You don’t even pay taxes!
But thats all about to change, because a swarm of human-engineered medical robots descends upon your island, offering a “cure” that promises to return you and your family back to a regular human life.
Despite their good intentions, you have no desire to be cured. Instead, you want to STAY DEAD.
Description
A wacky & wholesome Zombie adventure!
Stay Dead is a wacky adventure survival game where you face the challenge to protect your zombie family and community from the menace of the cure and the horrors of going back to a regular human life.
Lead your family in a snake-like formation through chaotic and funny missions to destroy the Cure Bots and reclaim your zombie paradise.
In Stay Dead, your family are your life points, so avoid getting jabbed with the cure at all costs. Missions are inspired by routinary family activities, like a trip to Home Reap-O to buy things for the house, all while surviving the robots trying to cure you.
You can defend your kin by throwing some good punches. Switch characters to use different abilities to overcome challenges. Find collectibles, solve puzzles, and restore your zombie community to its original glory.
