About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a quieter, survival-first zombie story that leans into loneliness and routine over nonstop action, somewhat in the vein of Oxygen; Not for you if you need constant zombie fights or clear explanations.
Pros: tense, eerie silence; grounded survival focus; strong lead performance | Cons: slow pace; familiar zombie beats; unanswered questions linger
