What if survival didn’t mean fighting back—but simply staying alive?
In a world of massive open-world zombie games, Deadlight feels like a quiet echo from another era—a short, cinematic platformer about fear, solitude, and atmosphere.
Originally released in 2012 by Tequila Works and Microsoft Studios, Deadlight blends 2.5D side-scrolling with gritty, film noir visuals and minimalist storytelling. You play as Randall Wayne, a survivor navigating the ruins of 1980s Seattle after a zombie outbreak. It’s not about power—it's about endurance.
In this video, we revisit Deadlight in 2025 to see why this forgotten gem still holds up—especially on the Steam Deck. From its tight pacing to its haunting atmosphere, this game proves that not every apocalypse needs to be open world. Sometimes, all you need is a flashlight, a rooftop, and the will to survive.
