Quarantine 2019 : Surviving World War Z... or causing it.
« on: July 09, 2009, 10:25:30 AM »
Hey guys,
Came across this thanks to the SA forums.

http://www.quarantine2019.com/

Quarantine 2019 is a free browser text based zombie survival game where you play as either a zombie or a survivor. Zombies can infect survivors, and survivors can cure zombies. So you might switch side at any moment.

The goal of the zombies is to destroy the whole city, have it lay in waste.

The goal of the survivors is to find a permanent cure against the zombies.

How it works is you have 50 action points you get to spend to do stuff. It refills at 1 points per 7 minutes, thus completely in 6 hours. You level up fairly quickly and get better at doing whatever you want to do. Zombies mostly turn into killing machines, unless they want to become smart zombies that can listen to survivor broadcast and open door. Survivors can become medic, engineer (to barricade doors and repair buildings), warriors or scientists (find cure, create antidotes).

So far it's good fun and I got two of my friends addicted already. The round is nearing its end as the survivors are thoroughly whupping the zeds decaying butts, so if you start zombie in the next few day, you might die a lot.

If you enough of you guys like the game, let me know, we could create a group.

It does, but can you be a zombie in UD?

Yup. I used to run with the SA goons on UD and we caused all kinds of hell. I had like 6 or 7 high level characters by the time I got bored of it.

The general opinion is that its better than UD.
