About the Game

The Great Forest was once a vibrant land gifted to humanity by the gods themselves. Alas, after many bloody wars and the discovery of forbidden black magic, the forest is now known for its terrible curse in which every decade hordes of undead ravage a once great civilization. After an outsider accepts a job protecting an old woman from "creatures" keeping her up at night, he soon finds out about the horrifying calamity first hand.

That outsider is you. Your task is to defend the cabin and yourself from waves of beasts, zombies, demons, and what have you. Utilize strategy, quick reactions, and a multitude of enhanced arrows and upgrades to make it out alive!

- Simple gameplay (aim, charge, and shoot) that still allows for great challenge
