This project started as a tabletop experiment to see if a deck of random event cards could power a unique story every time I played. The results were incredible. Compared to traditional RPGs with fixed plots, the sense of adventure created by this total unpredictability far exceeded my expectations. That’s why I decided to turn this idea into a full indie game. Tabletop Survivors is a turn-based Roguelike Card RPG where the story is driven by random events. I’ve also added an innovative ' Card Distance ' mechanic to the combat, making weapon range a key factor and significantly deepening the strategy. The story takes place after a zombie outbreak. You hear on the radio that you need to get to the port as soon as possible to catch the last evacuation ship. On this arduous journey through the apocalypse, you and your companions will face the hardships of lack of water and food, deal with hordes of zombies, and defend against bandits you may encounter at any time. Will you be able to reach your destination? SURVIVORS Each character has a randomly generated combination of skill points, and you need to combine and utilize their abilities in a reasonable way to build a powerful team. CHOICE MATTERS Your choices will determine the plot and the characters' fates, so please be careful. Your choice, your story. WATER, FOOD, SLEEP, AND MOOD Survival requires water, food, and sleep, and the inability to obtain these will affect mood. A depressed survivor will perform poorly in both action and combat. WEAPONS AND AMMUNITION You can buy weapons from gun dealers, seize weapons from enemies, or even pick up a shovel or pitchfork to use as a weapon. Although cold weapons are not as powerful as firearms, they can save precious ammunition. ARMOR From simple clothes and hats to sophisticated military armor, you need to constantly improve your protection to deal with increasingly powerful enemies. UPGRADE AND REPAIR Equipment of the same level can be combined and upgraded to achieve higher performance. Old equipment can be restored to its original performance through repair. MEDICINE Medicine can restore HP, but wounds can only heal slowly over time. MORE RULE OPTIONS Shooting accuracy decreases at night? Food spoils over time? Gunshots attract zombies? You can customize even more rule options. Are you ready to embark on this apocalyptic journey?
