About the game
From the creator of DEVOUR (+ 7million copies sold), ​​LIVING HELL is a 1-4 player co-op survival horror game set in Pelican City. The collapse of the ozone layer exposed the city to devastating solar radiation, triggering widespread, terrifying mutations. Capture mutated specimens and turn them into biofuel to power your train: your last chance to reach one of the remaining rockets and escape Earth.
FUEL YOUR RIDE
​​Leave the safety of the train and explore dangerous, handcrafted locations in search of mutated specimens. Process them into biofuel and scavenge materials to craft what you’ll need to survive the journey ahead.
TRUST NO ONE
​​The blistering heat is a threat of its own. Manage your Thermal Load and find ways to stay cool, or risk mutating and turning against your own teammates.
A DIFFERENT JOURNEY EVERY TIME
