Dead State is a new zombie survival role-playing game that brings a different gameplay style to zombie survival, rather than the first-person shooters such as Left 4 Dead and similar titles.
Dead State has been under development for some time, but now the development team has turned to Kickstarter for extra funding to help complete the game a little quicker. Watch the video after the jump to see it in action.
Unique Gameplay Mechanics
“Dead State is a compelling, high-tension RPG set at the beginning of the zombie apocalypse. As society is beginning to fall apart, the player must organize allies, fortify a shelter, scout for food and supplies, and make uncertain alliances, attempting to hold together a group as humanity teeters on the brink of extinction. And although the zombies lurk as an ever-present threat, the biggest obstacle to the player may just be other humans with the same goal: survival at any cost.”
Unlike many other zombie games that focus on action and combat, Dead State emphasizes strategy, resource management, and human interaction. Players must carefully manage their resources, including food, medical supplies, and ammunition, to ensure the survival of their group. The game also features a morale system, where the player’s decisions can affect the mood and loyalty of their allies. This adds a layer of complexity, as players must balance the immediate needs of survival with the long-term goal of maintaining a cohesive group.
Community and Development
The Dead State Zombie RPG game is currently over on the Kickstarter website looking to raise enough pledges to make the jump from concept to production. So if you think it is something you could benefit from, jump over to the Kickstarter website now to make a pledge and help Dead State become a reality.
The development team behind Dead State has been very transparent about their progress and the challenges they face. They regularly update their backers with new information, screenshots, and gameplay videos. This level of engagement has helped build a strong community around the game, with many fans eagerly awaiting its release.
One of the standout features of Dead State is its focus on realism and immersion. The game world is dynamic, with events and encounters that can change based on the player’s actions. For example, if the player decides to raid a nearby store for supplies, they might encounter other survivors doing the same thing. These encounters can lead to tense standoffs, negotiations, or even outright conflict.
The game’s developers have also put a lot of effort into creating a believable and immersive world. The environments are detailed and varied, ranging from urban areas to rural landscapes. The game’s sound design is also top-notch, with atmospheric music and realistic sound effects that help to create a sense of tension and unease.
