About the Game

You are a kick-ass nun, armed to the teeth with an automatic weapon and accompanied by an adorable kitty cat. The world has gone to hell, and all sorts of demons and ghouls come out at night. Wolves, Zombies, Vampires -- it makes no difference to the nun with a gun. Luckily, you only have to survive the night, as these beastly bad guys can't survive in daylight. Help your tiny kitty cat get to the quarantine zone and blast these maniacs' heads off ... In the Dead of Night!
