- Zombie Roguelite Survivor, Created by Two College Friends, Releases Free Demo
- A new game in the Survivors genre featuring hand-drawn comic visuals combined with crew management and strategic elements.
- 4-player cooperative action where you combine 10 managers and up to 30 crew members to clear out hordes of zombies
Indie developer Dummy Dojo and publisher Galore Interactive announced that they will release a new zombie roguelite survivor title , ‘Undead Night Crew,’ on Steam in the fourth quarter of 2026.
‘Undead Night Crew’ is set in the fictional company ‘Undead Cleaning Services Inc.’, which cleans up zombie-infested streets. Players take on the role of a newly appointed manager who recruits auto-attacking cleaners and must combine various abilities and synergies to deal with the endlessly swarming hordes of the undead.
The game is characterized by hand-drawn, cartoon-style visuals and vibrant colors that add a sense of intimacy, making it easily accessible to everyone.
The endless cycle of going to work, zombie cleaning, and going home.
‘Undead Knight Crew’ is a roguelite survivors game where you select a manager, recruit janitors, enhance their abilities and equipment, and build an elite zombie-sweeping organization.
Starting with a contract with a crew, players form synergistic combinations that maximize each character’s unique traits and are deployed to the field. The game wittily reflects the realistic life of an office worker, as the developers described it as “a daily routine of clocking in, clearing out zombies, going home, and repeating the same thing the next night.”
The core fun element of the game is the intricate cycle of growth and challenge, where you train your crew with funds earned by clearing stages and prepare for the next operation by equipping powerful weapons.
Strategy created with a manager and crew combination
The game features 10 unique managers with different personalities, stats, skills, and follow patterns. From managers who emphasize “We are family” to those who enjoy partying, players can choose a manager that suits their play style.
The number of support characters can be expanded up to 30, and combining crew members of the same profession triggers special synergy effects. Additionally, by utilizing the ‘Clause Points’ system, you can directly adjust the game’s difficulty by adding stage hazards, special zombies, and various variables.
The method of movement is not simple either. When walking for long periods is burdensome, you can use a cleaning truck to quickly move through hordes of zombies.
The game supports online cooperative play for up to four players. The game unfolds with each player leading their own manager and crew into the battlefield, promising more complex and chaotic battles than when playing alone.
Dummy Dojo, a two-person development team that has been together for 8 years

The development team explained that they incorporated their favorite elements of game development—hands-on gameplay, ingenious ideas, and just the right amount of zombies—into ‘Undead Knight Crew’.
‘Undead Knight Crew’ is currently available for preview through a free demo, allowing players to experience the game’s main content before its official release. The full version is currently under development with a target release date of Q4 2026 on Steam.
