About
It's another summer at Camp Keepalive, and things are about to get messy.
In this turn-based strategy game set in a camp straight out of an 80's horror movie, you are in control of a group of counselors on a mission to save the campers from the horrors that lurk in the night (and the camp from a series of unfortunate wrongful death lawsuits).
The campers may be dull-witted and the monsters may be relentless, but with each counselor having their own unique abilities, there's always a way to save the day.
Gameplay focuses on strategic decision-making, where player must always think a few turns ahead and where one wrong move can lead to a sudden reduction in staff...
Camp Keepalive: Endless Summer contains all the content of the original game with update graphics and UI, as well as new maps, counselors, and monsters. And with Endless Summer mode, you'll never run out of challenges to face.

Just because they work for cheap doesn't mean they're not talented. Constantly putting their lives on the line just by showing up, our counselors each have a unique skill to help them - and everyone else - survive the night.
Take Dave, for example - a fearless leader. When he can get his mind off his next romantic liaison, he can turn his talents towards keeping the campers in line. With his Gather ability, Dave can pull all nearby campers to him, making it much easier to guide them to safety.
Ashley, on the other hand, tends to think the best way to keep the campers safe is to erase as many monsters as possible from existence. Fortunately, as the descendent of a long line of hunters, she is able to do this extremely well. With her Hunt ability, she can eliminate most any monster she targets. Unfortunately, if the monsters get the drop on her, she's just as vulnerable as everybody else.
By building a team of four from our staff, you'll have everything you need to get out there, save the campers, and keep our summer camp hopes and dreams alive for one more night.

Is it wrong to call something a monster without truly knowing what dwells within its innermost self?
Maybe.
But not these guys - they are all extremely monstrous and will happily kill almost anything in their path.
The Wolfmen, for instance, have an insatiable hunger for fresh camper meat. They scour the woods, constantly searching out the nearest camper they can to make a meal of them. And so help you if you let one into the Mess Hall...
The Pleathermasks, on the other hand, clearly have some darker fire driving their malevolent behavior. They pick a single counselor and put all their energy into hunting that one down, ignoring all other victims until they do. It's a single-minded dedication that would be admirable in a lot of careers, but less so for murder.
By learning about the various monsters and how they behave, you'll be able to plan your actions to stay as safe and productive as possible.

Reviews
This turn-based strategy game is easy to pick up and learn but can get challenging in the best way. The simple graphics keep the game board clean so you can focus on your individual moves, and the humor's pretty good, too. The fonts could stand to be a little bigger when playing on a Steam Deck, but other than that it's a lot of fun on the Deck.
This game is absolutely delightful with lots of different characters to unlock, medals to achieve, and just a great atmosphere. I highly recommend it and it plays perfectly on the Steam Deck.
I downloaded the original demo for this game years ago on Itch.io I believe? It was fun then and even better now with the inclusion of more characters and levels. I'm kinda biased in my review though because this game was one of my childhood favorites. I had even made a board game version of it back in the day to play with friends. However, I've encountered some problems that need fixin. The Canoodle twins (C&C) and C-500 will break your game from time to time. With the twins, anytime they move the Devourer Swarm (Langoliers) they seem to bug out and freeze the game. You can still exit or restart but it will happen eventually if you use their ability and those monsters are on the map. Same with C-500, I'm not sure what triggers the bug like the swarm for the twins, but sometimes when playing with him it'll freeze. Their the only characters that cause the freezes as far as I've been able to tell. There are a couple levels (Day 17 I think was one of them) that didn't give me my badges after completing the goals. One of the Tremors levels never spawned the worms until well after I was nearing completion. A pretty big problem is that the final level (Day 29) just disapeared on me after finishing the second to last level. I even looked at some other peoples videos on YT and they didn't have the level either. I know it was there because I was reading the levels ahead of starting them. You had to fight an Eldritch God and close its portals or something similar. Pretty disappointed I wasn't able to finish the game. With a few bug fixes the game can be even better! Its an addicted game with a kickass soundtrack, but nothing will ever beat the original beat.
Its addictive gameplay loop, charming retro style, and rich horror movie references make it a worthy addition to your Halloween gaming treats.
A great tactics game that kept me entertained on multiple long flights recently. It's got a killer soundtrack and a retro theme with awesome summer horror movie vibes.
