Hello, my name is Wombat. It's a marsupial that lives in Australia. I'm embarrassed to say it myself, but because of its round body and short legs, people sometimes refer to it as a "walking stuffed animal." By the way, my poop is cube-shaped. Isn't it a little different and interesting?

``Terminus Zombie Survivors'', which I will be introducing this time, is a top-down survival game set in a zombie apocalypse world. At first glance, it may look like a typical zombie game, but its game system is packed with many unique elements that have the power to draw players in.

The biggest feature of this game is that it uses a turn-based system to express the worldview of zombie survival, which is usually depicted as action-oriented. Players are given AP (Action Points), which they use to perform actions such as movement, investigation, and combat.
So, when you run out of AP, your turn ends and the turn of another survivor or zombie begins. Because not everything moves in real time, players have the leeway to assess the situation slowly, allowing them to enjoy strategic play.



The goal of the game is to reach the "terminal" (airport). While exploring various automatically generated areas, you collect the resources necessary for survival, fight zombies, and sometimes interact with other survivors as you aim for your destination. You move forward without knowing where the next area will connect to, so you feel the tension of exploring a new area, the relief of finding a safe-looking house, the joy of discovering a supermarket, etc. There are many points that touch the player's emotions, and you can really feel the feeling of survival.







The survival elements of this work are very realistic. Players must survive by managing stats such as hunger, water, energy, and morale. Of course, you need to pay attention to the quality of your meals, drinking water, and sleeping.For example, if you drink rotten water or eat raw meat, you may get sick, and if you get wet in the rain, your clothes will get wet and your body will get cold. In this way, survival elements based on the laws of the real world increase the sense of realism and tension within the game.
The battle system is also interesting. When fighting zombies, you can choose which parts to attack (head, abdomen, legs), and the accuracy and damage to each part will change depending on the weapon you use. For example, a knife can cause major damage to the head, and an umbrella can be effective against the legs.
To completely defeat a zombie, you need to destroy its head, but there are good reasons to aim for anything other than the head.For example, a zombie whose legs are destroyed will move less distance per turn. In other words, it is important to decide whether to fight or flee depending on the situation.


The graphics are a 2D top-down perspective, using a simple yet effective expression. This 2D graphics has the effect of stimulating the player's imagination while clearly conveying the essential elements of the game. It can be said that the detailed actions and realistic rules create a unique sense of immersion by portraying a realistic scene in the player's mind.


The game system has many more features. You can choose your character class at the start of the game, offering a variety of playstyles. There is also a crafting system, where you can combine various items to create new tools and weapons.
As characters gain experience, they acquire survival skills and grow, and as they continue to use a particular weapon, their proficiency level may accumulate. If you unlock achievements in the game, you can also receive characteristic points that can be used when creating a character.


Selain itu, sistem yang membolehkan anda berinteraksi dan berdagang dengan mangsa yang terselamat lain, malah merekrut mereka sebagai sekutu, menambah kedalaman permainan. Ini bermakna anda bukan sahaja perlu bertahan sendirian, anda juga mempunyai pilihan untuk terus hidup sambil bekerjasama.

Selepas bermain permainan ini, saya merasakan bahawa Terminus Zombie Survivors adalah kerja bercita-cita tinggi yang memberi nafas baharu kepada genre survival zombi. Sifat strategik sistem berasaskan giliran dan sistem survival terperinci berada dalam harmoni yang sempurna, mewujudkan rasa ketegangan yang unik.
Ia mempunyai kebolehmain semula yang tinggi kerana peta yang dijana secara automatik dan berbilang pengakhiran, membolehkan anda menikmati pengalaman baharu berulang kali. Kerja ini disyorkan bukan sahaja untuk peminat permainan zombi tetapi juga untuk pemain yang suka permainan strategik, jadi pastikan anda mencubanya!
