Our take on Cannibal
The game places survival across cities and forests rather than limiting it to a wilderness setting, combining shelters, tools, and alliances with threats from rival survivor groups.
What is Cannibal?
Set decades after a global economic collapse and resource shortages, Cannibal follows a survivor whose parents died at age 12 and who was raised by Mr.
Francis. Hunger, violence, and attacks from cannibal groups shape life in a world where governments and authorities have collapsed. Build shelters for protection and create tools for survival tasks. Explore cities inhabited by gangsters and forests where cannibals search for prey. Seek scarce resources and try to form alliances with other survivors. Some groups accept new members, while others attack intruders. The game presents survival across urban and forest environments in a society where groups compete for resources and killing has become commonplace.
