Announced during the Kinda Funny Games Showcase, Bury Me, My Love originally released on iOS and Android on October 26, 2017. Developer The Pixel Hunt will be expanding the game's reach onto Nintendo Switch very soon. As the first full-scale independent game from The Pixel Hunt, Bury Me, My Love was also their breakout hit, gaining nominations and wins at a majority of game awards including The Game Awards, the GDC Awards, the BAFTA Game Awards, Google Play Indie Games Contest, and IndieCade Europe.

Many have attempted to flee to Europe and other safe regions but often don't make it.
