Build your own zombie-shredding factory.
Zombies Per Minute is a factory-building roguelite where everything you build is measured by one thing: how many zombies you can kill per minute. Yes, really.
All runs are different, depending on the maps, buildings, upgrades and operators you unlock when you succeed building high-ZPM outposts.
Your mission: build, survive, automate, and push your ZPM as high as it'll go. And it can go... VERY high.
- BUILD -
Every game starts from scratch. Scout the area to decide what to build, where you'll setup your defenses and what kind of resources you have access to.
- AUTOMATE -
An operator is fast, but cannot do everything manually. You'll need to automate and scale your small outpost into a huge, massive zombie shredder. The factory must grow. And it must grow fast.
- SET UP DEFENSES -
Set and arm your perimeter depending on the map geography and also we heard some zombies have mutated, whatever that means. You might need bigger guns. Oh and keep the ammunition flowing.
- UPGRADE -
We don't know what happened on Earth. Analyzing Zombies' DNA might help us receive CPU Upgrades for the Operator. Pick wisely, as you can only choose 6 upgrades.
- REPEAT -
Every outpost helps us learn more about what happened. New buildings, new areas, new upgrades and even new operators can be unlocked or improved; helping us venture deeper and deeper.
- OTHER ELEMENTS -
Procedural: each run has a seed and is entirely procedural.
Roguelite: each run is different, depending on the CPU Upgrades you choose from, the operator (science, economy, combat) you select or the science path you pick to follow. What will be the best combination to go in the million of ZPM?
Progression: unlock more buildings, zombie types, defenses, upgrades and map types between each run.
Campaign: explore an Earth that has become entirely zombified and discover what happened, in 12 epic missions. In this mode, you are the Operator, a machine guided by CLAIRE, an orbital AI searching for survivors in a world overrun by the living dead.
Leaderboard: in Endless mode, be among the best. Only one indicator matters: the Zombies Per Minute.
