About Zelter

✦ AI summary

Fight your way through zombie-infested cities to scavenge resources, craft defenses, and rescue survivors in this adorable pixel-art survival game. Balance combat, crafting, and strategy across multiple modes including a brutal six-day Challenge and an endless Pioneer mode where rescued NPCs become your allies—or your enemies if they don't survive.


An expanding zombie plague has caused entire communities to be cut off, locked in with a horde of monsters who were once fellow humans. You are one of the brave souls who enlisted to be dropped into one such isolated city, fight off the zombies, and rescue as many survivors as you can find. Scavenge, craft, fight, and survive!

Scavenge and build to survive


Going in guns blazing will just get you killed. Instead you must scavenge in the city and find resources to craft your own shelter. Work your way from stone spears to firearms. Hunt and forage to stave off thirst and hunger. Go from sitting huddled against the one campfire you built to standing behind barricades and automated turrets.

Survive against the odds in Challenge Mode


Prove yourself the ultimate zombie apocalypse hero in Challenge Mode and survive six days of escalating threats! It will be no easy task - you'll need to think on your feet, be smart about your resources and keeping your shelter secure. This is an intense mode of play in which you rescue civilians and risk your life covering their escape. Survive until the evacuation chopper arrives and remember your success is measured in the lives you save. But what’s that deafening roar? Looks like your last day will feature a threat like no other!

Band together with NPC survivors in Pioneer Mode


Pioneer Mode is an endless mode with heavy emphasis on recruiting the survivors you find to stand against the zombie horde. Study their backgrounds and see if they are someone you’d trust to have your back and you just might find you’re no longer fighting alone. It’s up to you to make sure they don’t die of hunger, thirst, or zombie bites. Else you just might find them in the next wave of zombies who come for your flesh. Even the most helpful civilian risks eventually caving under pressure, so be ready to call in the chopper to take them to safety. You alone are fit to continue your stand!

So cute it’s scary


Prepare to “awww” at Zelter’s adorable pixel graphics even as you put up defensive structures or follow a desperate survivor’s call for help. Zelter pairs its survival and crafting based gameplay with the cutest visuals.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Zelter is described by players as a game with potential that suffers from long-term developer abandonment, with the last update occurring around three years ago. While some acknowledge the game itself has merit and decent gameplay, players consistently criticize the lack of content, repetitive mechanics, bugs, and the developer's decision to leave the project unfinished. Players universally advise against purchasing the game given its abandoned state and limited development future.

I backed the Kickstarter over SIX YEARS AGO, hoping for something great, and all i got was something decent that was left to die after a few years. I'm incredibly disappointed in the developers for abandoning this game, there's so much potential here.

Games like Borderlands 3: guns that roll, trees that branch

Games like Borderlands 3 have to do two things at once: roll a new gun every few minutes and make a skill tree worth planning. These manage both, and one asks you to craft instead.

Games like Dragon Age 2 are hard to find because almost no RPG keeps you in one city while it rots. These come close, from Neketaka to the streets of Serene.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.
