Zombie Sweep
Zombie Sweep is an exciting logic and strategy game. Your mission is to open all the safe doors on the board while avoiding the ones hiding zombies. Each number you uncover gives you clues about how many zombies are lurking in the adjacent houses.
How to Play
Your goal is to uncover all the safe houses by opening their doors while keeping the ones with zombies locked.
In Zombie Sweep, the board consists of houses (cells) with alternating colors for better visibility. When you open a door, you might find:
- Empty House: A safe house. There are no zombies in the eight surrounding houses.
- House with a Number: The number indicates how many zombies are hiding in the adjacent houses (up to eight positions).
- Zombie: Oh no! You opened a house with a zombie. The game ends immediately.
Game Start: To help you get started, the board begins with some doors already open, revealing numbers or empty houses. This initial advantage gives you the first clues to plan your strategy.
Marking Dangerous Houses: When your logic tells you a house is likely hiding a zombie, mark it with a lock to avoid accidentally opening it and getting caught by the zombie.
Zombie Counter: In the top-left corner of the board, you'll find an indicator with a lock icon followed by a number. This counter shows how many zombie houses are left to mark. Each time you place a lock, the counter decreases.
