Fusion
Our newest game will be a fusion of neXus Engine gameplay using similar mechanics to Dungeon, but in a very different setting, and some discussion, reviews and news about Sci-Fi, Horror and Post Apocalyptic media.  Why?  Well, listen, you don’t have to read any of the extra stuff if you don’t want to, you can just play the game.  But we hope by widening the project, we will draw in new players, who come for the content and find the game thrilling too.

We Need YOU!
This game is going to be built as it grows.  And we need you to be part of that.  The idea is to create a Zombie Survival Game, with loot gathering, powering-up and base-building thrown in.  Our Facebook Page will feature chat and ideas from players, some of which will be used to grow the game with each turn that unfolds.  The game is completely free if you play only a single character.  After that, characters are £0.50 each per turn, with no Base Turn Fee as per DungeonWorld.  It’s cheap to play, unless you go BIG 🙂  This is because the game will be in a kind of eternal playtest, as we take new ideas and implement the ones we like and which are practical.  The main “bad guy” will be Zombies – lots of different types of Zombies.  But the nature of the world will mean other, scarier creations.

Game Area
Initially the game area will be a small town.  As the player base grows we will open other settlements up, and we will connect them with a very very dangerous “overland”.  This is going to take a lot of thinking about, and great care, to survive.  You might lose a few characters before the get tough enough to worry a little less, but you will always be looking over your shoulder.

Run-Time
This game will run every two weeks, on the opposite week to DungeonWorld.  It has elements of Twilight Earth, for those who remember that, but its a whole new thing.  It will not work with the NVE program at this stage and will be player entirely by PDF and using the online OEP to submit orders.
