9 itemsAbout the Game
Xmas Apocalypse is a festive horde-survival third-person shooter with roguelite meta-progression.

It's Christmas Eve during the Zombie Apocalypse and Santa's sleigh crashed over the zombie infested lands. Hordes of undead and other depraved creatures crawl out of the icy grounds to get a piece of Saint Nick. Can you survive until Christmas Day or is Christmas ruined forever?

Pick from a deck of upgrades to increase you firepower and add other effects to your gun. For example, equip your shotgun with the ability to shoot multiple projectiles that have the chance to burn your targets. Or Electrocute them. Each run you earn coins to unlock more upgrades to choose from and find the most destructive combinations.
