"Exclusion Zone" offers a tense, top-down survival horror experience wrapped in a moody pixel art aesthetic. Players navigate dark, labyrinthine docks and industrial areas, carefully scavenging for crucial supplies. The game effectively builds a sense of dread and isolation through its bleak environments and limited visibility. Combat is a deliberate and dangerous affair, making resource management a key component of survival. Fans of classic, retro-style horror will appreciate its focus on atmosphere and exploration.
