For those that haven't heard of this game, the Kickstarter project page is very informative. I know, more zombies. But keep reading: "We are so sick of most zombie games. Yes, we get it, killing zombies is fun. But that’s not what the zombie genre is about. It’s about survival, first and foremost – the struggle of the survivors faced with adapting to a world that has succumbed to an unfathomable event. This is your story – you’re the leader and it’s up to you to force the lucky, the traumatized, and the selfish to work together for weeks and months after society has collapsed. Zombies are the least of your problems – you need to keep morale high, mouths fed, and your shelter safe. You will lose people. You will make enemies. You will have to make tough decisions. And you might not make it."

The founders of DoubleBear worked for Black Isle, Troika and Obsidian. I know we are going through a zombie/last of us phase in gaming, but this looks refreshingly different and really polished with some experienced people behind it. Check it out.

Zombie games about pepople from designer of Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines described as a mix of X-COM and Fallout sounds great. Backed.

Well that sound great, even with boring old zombies.

I'll be backing this for sure.

the last 24 hours are upon us!

c'mon people! almost $300k! almost the new city area!

My first reaction after seeing only the title was "another stupid zombie game, I assume". But the description of the gameplay sounds really good. I might start a Kickstarter fund on their behalf to change the antagonists, though.

It looked great until he started talking about turn-based RPG mechanics. I kind of stopped being interested at that point. To me, the feeling of survivability in a post-apocalyptic world needs to be done a certain way, and turn-based isn't it.

However, kudos to them earning 100K+ past what they needed.
