"Z. feels like you and your opponent are making your own awesome zombie movie each time you play." --a playtester from Gen Con 2015 Z. Year One is a crowdfunded rogue-like zombie card game brought to life by Indie developer Downward Viral and over 1500 Kickstarter backers.
Two Asymmetrical Factions:
- Survivors
Search locations for supplies and use dozens of unique items, armor, and weapons to survive one more night!
- The Fallen
Sabotage locations, lay traps, convert Survivors into more Fallen, or just eat them them alive!
We've really tried to work the zombie theme into the gameplay and presentation, rather than just cloning other card games and slapping zombies on top. Our commitment to this is one of the things players have said they enjoyed the most.
Additional Features:
- Immersive 3D Environments
Z. takes the card game genre to the next level with fully realized 3D environments, including dynamic lighting, weather systems, destructible elements, and more.
- Gruesome Attack Animations
When it comes to attack animations, Z. is more Gears of War than Magic: The Gathering. Every headshot has a satisfying pop to it. Every chainsaw or flamethrower attack looks and sounds appropriately violent and awesome.
Note: Z. is currently in-development and may include placeholder audio/visuals, bugs, and incomplete content. We're working around the clock each day to turn out a polished final release. Some features may change before v1.0 depending on testing and player feedback.
