TEST YOUR METAL

  • 1-4 player online co-op

    You and your friends must evade twig men and complete the objectives. All while the witch hunts you...

  • Complete the objectives

    Find and burn the six effigies across the map, then refuel the escape vehicle to survive.

  • Find useful items

    Items range from flashlights, keys, med-kits and more. If you are to win, make use with what you find.

  • Semi-Procedural World

    All item and objective spawns are random, making no two runs the same.

  • Proximity voice chat

    Yell and scream for your friends, they just might hear you.

  • Open world exploration

    Find and explore 7 locations across a mid-sized open world map

  • Escalating difficulty

    With each objective completed monsters become more aggressive and dangerous.
