About the Game



The Zhukov Line is a short one-room-horror which takes place on a livestock train in a dystopian Soviet state.



First day on the job...
Accepting a new job as a transport supervisor for the Chernovar Oversight Division you have been tasked with transporting a special livestock specimen. As you awake on a cold iron train, you hear ungodly screams from the coaches behind you. Scrambling to your computer, you read your mission statement and learn that the only way to survive is by keeping the specimen restrained, by maintaining industrial grade systems built into the train



Keep the train running...
Can you keep the systems repaired long enough to reach your destination and escape the aberrant monstrosity tearing its way through the train carriages to meet you?
