Dead East
Hello, Gravedigger!
Thank you for coming to our humble lands. The Settlersâ Rebellion left us with piles of corpses, and the undead haven't let us have a full night's sleep since. Help us bury our fallen kin so they may never rise again.
These lands are dangerous, but if you make it to Havenâs Reach, youâll finally be able to rest awhile. As a reward, the company will double your wages.
Good luck, and watch your step!

Had no problem playing the game in Chrome which I opened through Discord. Noot bad game, reminds me of Gameboy screens
Heads up, when I try to play in browser, it gets stuck on the startup saying the cartridge is too large.
Should be fixed now! Sorry about that!
