What is zombicide party?

This app allows help organizing all the logics and mechanics while playing Zombicide, and allow the players to reproduce activations and weapons sounds to create a rich and intense atmosphere and a more deep playing experience. This is not a game by itself, but a tool make your gaming sessions more intense and organized. You need a physical Zombicide tabletop game so this app can make any sense and be of any help for you.

Game and Expansions

At this very moment, only Zombicide Season 1 is supported, as well as DogZ expansion and Karl Kopinski's characters. You can also activate Night Shift Campaign Expansion. This is a custom campaign with exclusive material made by me and not supported by Guillotine Games. It is still under development, but you may take a peek and use some of its items ans features if you want to. Soon, Night Shift Campaign will be fully released.

How to use it

You can just open the page https://annabranco.github.io/zombicide-party/. on any desktop computer, tablet or mobile devices and enjoy the experience (note that there is a known issue with some Android devices. More info below). But the desktop version is the most recommended version to play it. If you are an experienced user or developer, you may clone this repo, install its dependencies with $ yarn on your console and then running it with $ yarn start. Note: even though you run it locally, you still need internet access to see part of the content. Note2: even though you may run it from any device, I really recommend to use it on a desktop to enjoy the full experience.

Future developments

It is planned for future developments to add more expansions and maybe 2nd Edition. A server mnode is also planned, where players may have a server running and each player control its character by their own devices. Any suggestions for future developments and enhancements are mostly welcome. Make sure to open an issue giving your suggestions and I could work on that. Just know that I develop all of this by myself on my free time and I receive absolutely nothing to do that (aside from eventual virtual coffees), so please be kind and patient.

Bugs and issues

There is a current known issue on some Android devices where the game crashes when changing the character. I cannot solve it yet, and to address this issue I need more research and tests. Have you found any bugs?? Please notify me on my issues page and I'll try to fix it as soon as possible. And thank you very much!

Final words

I really hope you like and it helps you have a wonderful experience while playing Zombicide with your family, friends or even by yourself. After all, there's nothing like a great party night rocking and killing zombies. ^^ If you like this application, please consider supporting its development. It is really tough to spend almost a thousand hours of development just by myself to try to bring this project to life. Thus, a virtual coffee as a form of support is really appreciated! You can do it through my Ko-fi page: https://ko-fi.com/annabranco Many many many thanks!!! 🖤
