Plot

The game takes place during apocalypse caused by a virus that turns all sober people into zombies. The player starts in a room that keeps a great amount of different of alcoholic beverages and weapons - a Wild West bar.

Gameplay

The game's main objective is to keep the levels of alcohol in your system as high as possible without getting poisoned. Basically, any bite you receive from a zombie lowers the amount of alcohol in your system. The higher the levels of alcohol the more so called ‘health points’ you have, but drinking too much will add a woozy effect and would make your character sway around. The lower the amount of alcohol the less ‘health points’, however you can see more clearly, thus making it easier to aim.
