Steam Store description
The night the Deadlock Protocol was triggered, Ravenwood became a cage. Now the small Appalachian town is overrun by horrors born from the Ashen Virus — twisted mutations of the people who once lived here. The city gates are sealed. No one gets in. No one gets out. You are Jim , an ordinary man trapped in Ravenwood when the outbreak erupts. Armed with whatever you can scavenge, you’ll fight to survive the night — through blood-soaked motels, barricaded churches, abandoned police stations, and the hidden laboratories that birthed the nightmare. Deadlock is a 2.5D top-down survival horror inspired by the classics but built for a modern audience: Scavenge & Survive – manage scarce ammo, craft makeshift weapons, and decide when to fight or run. Face the Infected – from shambling corpses to grotesque mutations like The Maw and Bone Spear Mutant, every encounter could be your last. Explore Ravenwood – a seamless open-world map filled with motels, churches, police stations, mines, and secret labs. Every location hides supplies… or something far worse. Uncover the Truth – piece together Project Ashen, a conspiracy that turned a town into ground zero. The gates of Ravenwood are closed. Your only choice is to fight, adapt, and escape — before the city buries its secrets with you.
