Our take on Scheming Through The Zombie Apocalypse: The Beginning
The game departs from typical zombie survival structures by making persuasion the main tool for staying alive. Instead of sending the central characters into danger to gather supplies, it turns scavenging into a negotiation over who takes the risk and how the rewards are divided.
What is Scheming Through The Zombie Apocalypse: The Beginning?
This story-driven adventure follows Hank, a retired salesman rabbit, and Larry, his canine companion, through a zombie apocalypse.
Rather than entering dangerous locations themselves, they persuade other animals to scavenge for supplies. Gameplay centers on choosing how to influence characters, directing scavengers during risky missions, dividing recovered loot, trading items, managing inventory, and gambling resources. Decisions can place scavengers in life-or-death situations, while dark comedy and real-world persuasion tactics shape the presentation. The game is the first part of a story series and focuses on guiding character choices, bargaining for cooperation, and surviving without personally taking the same risks as the animals sent to loot.
