Our take on Plaguepunk Justice
The description foregrounds the healer role and the plague setting, while offering little detail about how tactical encounters play out beyond turn-based combat, stealth, and randomly generated levels. The developer also identifies randomized level generation as a first attempt, a useful caveat alongside that feature’s prominence.
What is Plaguepunk Justice?
Plaguepunk Justice is a turn-based tactical strategy game set in a society shaped by generations of disease.
The plague transforms ordinary citizens into zombies, and the player takes the role of a healer using non-lethal options to handle situations. Gameplay includes stealth elements, medicine crafting, and randomly generated levels. Its world features plague doctors, masks, and people adapted to life with the disease. The game’s comic-book aesthetic accompanies a premise focused on turning zombies back into humans rather than killing them. The developer says it is their second game and first attempt at randomly generated levels; it was made with GameMaker: Studio 1. 4.
