Released: 12/7/2023

Infected by a zombie bite, Anling's days are numbered. She must now fight to survive, not for herself but her young son, Cody. Ensure Cody's survival in a zombie infested world by protecting him and teaching him valuable skills, at any cost. In this emotional survival game take control of Anling whose goal is to make sure her son Cody is safe and can live on after she turns. Limited resources must be managed in order to slow down Anling’s infection while also making sure both Anling and Cody do not starve from hunger or thirst. Anling must also teach her son essential survival skills such as cooking, crafting and combat before hers begin to fade. She might find that in certain situations she will start depending on him. A perfect balance of managing your days looking for resources and increasing Cody’s skill set will be needed in order to survive the long journey. LIKE MOTHER, LIKE SON Cody will learn from the actions his mother, from combat to cooking. Make sure he knows the basics of survival before it is too late.
