81Zombies - ZX81

Tuesday Wakes...

The world looks strange. Unfamiliar rooms open out before her, a decaying landscape dominated by the dark places in the world. And shambling toward her the impossibly lifeless eyes of the zombie masses. 

Only for the Sinclair ZX81 (Timex1000) with 16k of memory,  see how long you can guide Tuesday as she survives the zombie onslaught - their strength and numbers increasing with each room she passes through.  

Written (almost) entirely in ZX81 BASIC, this is a turn-based deck-building survival horror delivered in a way unique to the Sinclair's 1981 home 8-bit system.  It features: 

• 16 unique cards to find and add to your deck
• 5 different room styles
• 2 different enemy types
• Ranged, melee, area, ad explosion attacks along with equippable items. 

Requires either a ZX81 with 16k memory, or emulator (I recommend ZEsarUX, available for download here). 

It 'can' be played at the original system speed, but as its a BASIC program, it runs very slowly; I suggest accelerating emulation speed!

Make sure you download and read the J-Card style tape insert for full instructions and that genuine 80's micro taste!
