Dead Above

Dead Above is a top-down survival shooter set in a world where walking corpses fill the surface. You live underground, but the corpses threaten the abandoned mine elevator that is your only way up. Gather resources, build defenses and protect the elevator and yourself while you wait for someone to fight alongside you.

Gather and build

Use an axe to collect ore and other resources, then store them in a storage yard. In the sandbox construction system, you can build research-oriented, functional, defensive and damage-focused structures. Spend experience points to improve abilities; the game has no hierarchy system.

Defend the elevator

Fight waves of zombies and face whatever ghosts and monsters come later. The game combines top-down shooting with defense and survival, and you may not be able to hold out for long. You can pause the game.

Weapons and teammates

Spend resources to manufacture weapons. You can carry four additional weapons or attack with your axe. Teammates can injure you, so their actions may cause problems as you defend the elevator together.
