Overview
Description

Trapped Dead drops you into a gritty early‑80s Midwest town overrun by a genetically engineered virus. Control two college students and a cast of survivors in isometric, real‑time tactical missions as you battle hordes of the infected. The game blends classic Commandos‑style planning with horror‑movie atmosphere, offering both solo and cooperative play. Its story‑driven scenarios and tense zombie encounters keep the tension high from start to finish.

Choose your side in the epic war between two masterminds of Evil: the rogue apprentice Orville Tycoon with his heavy‑duty zombie army, or his vengeance‑thirsty mentor Professor Brainhov and his twitchy brain‑munchers. The game blends real‑time strategy, action, horror and comedy into a uniquely humorous battlefield. In single‑player you fight to seal the fate of Finkleville’s last survivors, while multiplayer pits you against other players in adrenaline‑charged deathmatches, offering endless replayability for both solo and competitive gamers.
