According to the projects Indiegogo notes, Surviving the Humans places you in the undead role of Cooper, a zombie recently arisen from the dead in the 1980s, with no memory of your life as one of the living. You will guide Cooper through an epic story where he learns what it means to be a zombie and how to change human's misconception about its kind. The studio aims to tell a story it believes has never been told before, to counter the dominant and popular idea that zombies always have to be bad, murderous, and monstrous.

The games point-and-click style was inspired by classic games such as Monkey Island, Full Throttle, and Grim Fandango. The devs state they hope to help you once again have the same feelings you had while playing those games once you get into Surviving the Humans. To that effect, the game features exploring four chapters of engaging gameplay involving collecting numerous items to solve a multitude of puzzles with, as well as meeting and talking to various NPCs who have their own unique stories, and who may need to be convinced of certain things to advance in the story.

One particularly intriguing feature of the game is that Coopers body is in full rot and it is difficult for him to keep his limbs together. This allows you to use Coopers dismembered body parts to help deal with certain puzzles and overcome game obstacles. For example, you can place Coopers head somewhere small and inconspicuous so you can see and hear things happening in a certain location without trying to hide your entire body there. A dismembered hand can similarly be controlled remotely to interact with objects your entire body cant somehow get close enough to. An interesting game mechanic, for sure.
