They Are Coming is a side-scrolling zombie survival game developed by OnHit Developments. Combining shooting, base defense, roguelike progression, and survival mechanics, the game places players in the middle of a relentless zombie apocalypse where every day becomes more dangerous than the last. Armed with firearms, traps, barricades, and a growing arsenal of equipment, your mission is simple: survive for as long as possible against the endless undead invasion.
THEY ARE COMING - DEFEND YOUR BASE AGAINST THE UNDEAD
