Our take on Zombie Squad
The defining structure is automatic squad combat paired with manual skill activation: characters handle their attacks while the player decides when to trigger abilities. Tower-defense encounters, roguelike progression, card draws, and training resources build around that limited-input combat model.

Characters fight automatically during levels, while the player activates their abilities by clicking. The game also includes card drawing and character development. Completing levels provides resources for training characters, creating a progression loop alongside the combat encounters.
