How to play Axe of Fury

You can work the whole thing out by playing it. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. It is built tall rather than wide — comfortable one-handed on a phone, centred and uncropped on a monitor. Nothing is lost by trying something reckless once.

Why it is worth playing

The reason Axe of Fury holds up is restraint: it takes one idea — zombie — and builds the whole game around it instead of padding it out. It works as well on a phone on a bus as it does on a desktop.
