In this town your legacy is the only thing that matters. When your Reaper falls, their child, sibling or cousin picks up their gear and continues the fight. But be warned, if your entire bloodline is wiped out, all your hard-earned upgrades are gone forever!
The stakes aren't just one life, are your entire family tree.
Terrible Life Expectancy is a Rogue-Like horror top down shooter with Survivors and Extraction elements where you fight huge hordes of mutants and only inherit your upgrades as long as there are members of your family still alive.
As long as there are members from your family tree still alive you'll inherit all your upgraded gear and keep your progress, but you'll have to start from scratch if your family gets completely anhillilated and choose a new one with different traits for a new run.
Choose your weapons and gear for your gameplay style and improving your stats.
Make some bets in your favor (or not) before your run with your hard reaped mutant's teeth. Some sadistic folks like to bet on a Reaper's run, so you can take on the challenges they propose you and collect the rewards or loose a ton of money.
Family matters: Choose carefully the family member you want to use in your next attempt because each one has their advantages and downsides.
Street smarts: Know your surroundings! Some houses can always be entered and looted and each area is better or worse for different kinds of warfare and enemies.
Don't get too cozy: Different mutants of all sizes and bosses are waiting to meet the fun end of your gun, and altough the town streets won't change, sometimes the conditions of the run get altered by your final enemy: The Arkane Meteorite.
