About Codename CURE
Codename CURE is a first‑person, co‑operative zombie shooter supporting up to five players. Players act as special‑ops operatives who either plant explosives to “cure” infected zones or survive endless waves of enemies. The game offers both objective‑focused missions and a wave‑based survival mode, with dynamic difficulty that scales to player count.
Five distinct classes—Pointman, Support, Assault, Technician, and Sniper—provide unique play styles and equipment. CURE can be played online, over LAN, or offline with AI teammates, and includes a level editor, Steam achievements, and partial controller support on Windows and Linux.
01 / THE GUIDE
Objective Mode
In Objective mode, a team of up to five players assumes the roles of special military operatives. Their goal is to plant controlled explosives in infected areas and then exit quickly. Each class contributes a specific tactical advantage to complete the mission.
The mode adapts its difficulty based on the number of participants, ensuring a balanced challenge whether playing solo or with a full squad.
- Coordinate class abilities before planting explosives to cover all angles.
- Use the short‑exit window to avoid lingering enemies after detonation.
02 / THE GUIDE
Survival Mode
Survival mode presents a wave‑based, no‑win scenario where players fend off increasingly difficult zombie hordes. Between waves, a dynamic selection of weapons and equipment can be resupplied to improve odds.
Difficulty scales with player count, making the mode challenging for solo players and intense for full squads.
- Prioritize resupply choices that match the upcoming wave’s enemy type.
- Maintain a defensive perimeter to buy time for resupply between waves.
