File 01 — what this is

Old-school round survival. Modern gear underneath.

Waves hit, you hold. Between rounds you spend points on guns, perks and walls — while a Tarkov-grade body keeps score: seven limb zones that bleed, fracture and fail, all managed on the same torn-paper UI this site is styled after.

01 · ARSENAL

Pack-a-Punch

Feed the machine your points, walk out with a re-tiered gun — more damage, bigger mags, new behavior.

20+ weapons · 4 tiers

02 · VITALS

Seven body zones

Bleeds, fractures, blacked limbs. Bandage, splint, tourniquet — drag the med onto the limb that needs it.

Tarkov-style limb health

03 · DEFENSE

Nail it down

Hammer crates into doorways. Cades have real HP and armor — and the horde chews through if you stop repairing.

Physical cades · 3 material tiers

04 · LOADOUT

Grid inventory

A real bag with weight, helmet and rig slots, and item stats. Loot corpses for brass, meds and gear.

Grid bag · 7 gear slots

05 · HARDWARE

Turrets & traps

Auto, flame, tesla, cryo, rocket. Place them on the choke, wire traps, pick them back up when the wave shifts.

5 turret types · reclaimable

06 · PERKS

30 perks on tap

Speed-reload, double-tap, revive-fast, electric nova — wall machines all over the map, each with a trick.

Standings · the board clears every Sunday

Last man standing.

This week's runs, deepest wave first. Every run posts itself when the squad goes down — map, kills, downs, points, units lost and how many queued together.

Fresh from the lab

The same dispatch log the launcher pulls on every start — newest first.

The Horde Learns to Knock

— your barricades finally mean something to the common dead.

Regular zombies now attack whatever blocks them — cades included — for the same damage they deal players.

Ghosts in the Ranks

— the squad was always there. You just couldn't see it.

Soldiers, upkeepers and drones were invisible, not missing — fixed, along with the ranks behind them.

Straight & True

— see the hit, trust the count.

Hit markers on every connecting round, plus accuracy, spawn and trap fixes across the board.
