Strange Brew

A cinematic 3D action platformer with intense chases that feel like a zombie movie. Run to evade, throw beans to distract, and use environmental traps to slow, smash or zap the hordes. Expect non-stop mayhem, absurd story beats, screams/laughs, as you play as a duck mascot with a coffee addiction.

About the Game

STRANGE BREW is a cinematic 3D action platformer with intense chases that feel like a zombie movie. Run to evade, throw beans to distract, and use environmental traps to slow, smash or zap the hordes. Expect non-stop mayhem, absurd story beats, screams/laughs, as you play as a duck mascot with a coffee addiction.

RUN FROM THE DECAFFEINATED

Drop or throw coffee beans to lure and trick zombie hordes. Be clever. To top the leaderboard, Joe must take risks to orchestrate mass murders for monster point totals.

KILL ‘EM ALL, IF YOU MUST

Expect to always be chased and harassed. Swat through the chaos, leap from tall buildings, and make good use of environmental hazards. Save yourself to take the fight to them.

EMBRACE THE MADNESS

Strange Brew is awash in atmospherics and cinematic moments. Find yourself behind the DJ booth at a warehouse rave, or atop a monorail screaming out of control, or summiting the nuclear cooling tower. Drink it up!

FEEL FREE TO REPLAY

Seek different paths to unlock secrets, like fabulous additional costumes.  Switch to the '68 Living Dead Mode to experience this apocalypse in black-and-white.

It was the end of civilization and there was no coffee.
