As a butcher you serve people meat, but what if the meat is also people? You can’t help it in ZOMBUTCHER, since you’re a Zombie. Sell meat to normal humans during the day, and hunt them down to butcher them at night as you manage a rather gruesome and dark business. You’re going to need some BRAAAAINS for this one.

Shop sims have become a really big thing in the last few years, with their being some kind of shop sim for everything. From trading card stores to gas stations but this seems a lot more unique with the setting. Since it’s part shop keeping business sim, part stealth action mixed together.

From the press release:

Every morning starts simple: collect meat from farmers, slice it up at your shop, and package it neatly for customers. But once the sun goes down, the real work begins. A stranger in a dark alley might just be your next chop.

As customer demand grows, players will upgrade equipment, expand their shop, and hunt for higher-quality ingredients to ensure the monsters’ orders are fulfilled, because they are one customer you do not want to disappoint – whether they’re craving fresh brains, bottled blood, or something a little more exotic.

And if your body starts falling apart? No problem. You’re a zombie. Swap out arms and legs from over ten different limb sets to unlock new abilities or just refresh your body.

Highlights:

• Stealth-action gameplay set in a creepy Louisiana town.
• Daytime shop management and nighttime hunting.
• Avoid patrols and rival hunters.
• Upgrade your butcher shop and tools.
• Harvest ingredients to craft monster-ready products.
• Swappable zombie limbs granting gameplay bonuses.
• A darkly comedic take on running a monster business.

A demo is planned to release during Steam Next Fest this February. I’ve no doubt it will run just fine with Proton.
