About this game

The action takes place on a planet where a vaccine for the zombie virus has long been developed, people live happily, and use teleportation stations for travel. However, in remote areas where there is no vaccination, devastating epidemics rage.

The player is offered two worlds to choose from, each with its own rules of survival. The city is safe, and everything necessary is readily available, but players must seek out opportunities to earn money. On the other hand, there's an apocalyptic zone where, instead of money, a wide range of combat and special skills are required.

Selecting "Island" from the menu begins the main storyline. The protagonistis shipwrecked and must survive on an island where intelligent life has been wiped out by a zombie virus. To return home, they must find and repair a teleportation station. This is a lengthy adventure, a series of quests that will require mastering a variety of skills.

If you start the game in a city, the course of events can be very varied, depending on random seeding and player choices. In particular, you will have the opportunity to enter the main story from a non-standard point with a non-standard set of items.

Once the main quest is completed, both worlds will be connected, allowing you to reap maximum benefits.

The skill development system is structured like in Morrowind, with no restrictions. This allows you to create a character who can dominate any opponent. Food and drink, in addition to replenishing physiological needs, provide a significant boost to combat stats. All resources in the game are reproducible, so you can live in any world forever

However, without skills and equipment there will be an acute shortage of money. However, you will get some idea of ​​what awaits you in the full game.

    Meet the new project

    Z-Factor is a role-playing game with survival elements. To successfully advance through the plot, the heromust provide himself with food and shelter. Food and drinks prepared according to recipes, work similarly to magical elixirs and provide a noticeable increase in combat characteristics. Character development depends on the player's actions.

There is no division into classes, you can watch your progress and change your behavior in the game, so that the desired skill develops faster. Mechanics that are familiar to Morrowind and Fallout players are used, but in no case are theyabout copying or imitating these projects. There are other features that can be found quite rarely.

When you take a quick look from afar, you only see a short name, but if you come closer and applyscientific skill, you can find out some details. The more important the secret contained in the object,the higher the skill must be to learn it. In some cases this is critical forprogression through the plot. When an object has already been studied, when looking from afar, the cursor turns green if the gaze falls onhostile creature, the crosshair turns red. The character has a certain reserve of stamina, which is spent on all active actions. In real-time combat, it works like action points in turn-based combat.
