About Ascension of the Dead

Ragdolls. Explosions. Soviet rocket legs.

This is undead sandbox chaos.

Kill zombies.Launch them across the map.Earn points.Buy absurd weapons and machines.Break the game in increasingly stupid ways.

FEATURES:

It’s janky. It’s busted. But it’s fun as hell.

Every weapon, mechanic, and feature has been added to make the gameplay loop feel better, faster, dumber.

THE VISION

AOTD is not a horror game. It’s not serious.It’s a sandbox slaughter sim with polish layered under madness.
