With a structure that allows for deep character customization and progression, you can pick your hero and tailor your abilities to fit your unique zombie-slaying style. Feel like going full-on Rambo? Or maybe you’d prefer a stealthy approach that would make ninjas weep with envy? The choice is yours!
