Players choose one of four characters; Jack, his ex-girlfriend Rachel,
the Rastafarian alien Luxo or the scientist Bryan. Each of the
characters has a different secondary attack in addition to their
equipped weapon. The game is set in the fictional town of Deadhill,
where a zombie apocalypse has occurred. Players must complete quests, gather items and fight the zombie horde with limited ammunition. Game locations include the suburbs, a shopping mall and the town centre.
The game uses a dual analogue
stick control system, one stick is used to move the player's character,
the other is used to aim the character's weapon. The game has light
role-playing elements, such as quests and item creation. Players choose
which quests they undertake, allowing non-linear progression and
exploration within the game world.
Players increase their character's level by defeating enemies and
collecting items. Items are located in containers such as bins and
cupboards. The chosen character can be levelled-up at bases, which also
serve as hubs for weapon modifications, for instance allowing the player
to create electrified melee weapons.
